Only distribution. Commercial and non-commercial. Can you send me an email and tell me what the name of this organization was?

The organization who kept harassing my domain providers was actually a german child-protection one. Apparently lolicon is illegal there and they think that the world evolves around german law. Instead of actually helping children, money that is donated by several company’s and the EU is wasted on nonsense such as trying to protect pixels.

Mon, 08 Apr 2013 03:32:30 +0000 http://blog.booru.org/?p=119#comment-613 So often, images on ‘booru’s are “What you see is what you get,” meaning that a character could be an adult age as in the hentai entitle “Domin-8 me” where the older sister of a main character looks like a minor in age. How would anyone know that the image was of an adult without that inside information? I doubt that anyone outside of the fans of such series would know. How can lolicon be differentiated visually from kiddyporn? Before anyone references the differences in ‘chibi’ or ‘super-deformed’ character depictions versus lolicon, let’s consider the basic drawing skills as those of basic shapes and form: chibi/ super-deformed characters are typically no taller than four of the characters head widths high. That is according to several drawing books by Adam Perry, Christopher Hart, other artists, as well as their publishers. I’ve seen xbooru.com and understand both sides: xbooru.com wants to exist, wants to stay in their location, and defends the right to post lolicon; name.com is worried about public outcry and the technical turmoil that lolicon brings.
Name.com was wrong by non-compliance with their terms of service. However, if this were a copyright issue and not an aesthetics issue, a Cease-and-Desist-Notice would’ve served xbooru.com the same speed of dismissal. Public policy, public law, and political pressures have done such things as taken down massive services like file sharing service, “Napster,” and their affiliates. A recent example of this is the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s cases against a file management service, “Megaupload”(http://www.digitalmusicnews.com/permalink/2013/20130119mega .Apr07, 2013). It is no stretch to say that ‘name.com’ may have been under specific direction/pressures.
I would reason that ‘Xbooru.com’s case is as easy or difficult to make, without publicizing the posted contents in question, as it is for ‘Name.com’ to reason dismissal without publicizing the posted contents in question along with the accusation.

It just saves us alot of b/w so hosting is cheaper.
