Well if anything it's probably the cp distribution that they can't handle... But i dunno

It doesn't seem like anything. The admin was posting on twitter in some vague way about DMCAs or something, but it doesn't seem to mean anything. It's more like he was thinking out loud about the pressure of dealing with that stuff.

Well, looks like it was

>>88905oh, gelbooru is hosted in Texas? Or the admin just lives there? Either way, that would explain some things. Yeah, it's not a good idea for this stuff to be hosted in USA any more, especially uh, certain states.

Summary: The people on sankaku's blogs who were raving about liberal cencorship are now realizing why they probably should not count on a religious party to defend their freedom

I wonder if this will lead to more blacklisting of japanese doujin sites. I guess the first people they would go after are the booru's but I suppose pixiv makes money

>>88927that would be getting into political things, but gamer bros have been getting criticized by activists that their games don't portray women well and those people have say in private companies. So they sort of got roped into the idea that conservative policies will give them the freedom of artistic expression that prevents these activists from telling private companies that they want things a certain way

Looks like no one in reading the actual law in question or doesn't know what "virtually indistinguishable from an actual" means.
It's nothingburger. The texas thing has nothing to do with this situation.

>>88933tbh, I have no idea what the situation even is. Maybe you can tell me what is actually happening.
But in context of that Texas Law.
The wording is probably to do with AI generation, because it becomes hard to target actual cases if it's muddled with AI gen.
Freespeech doesn't defend obscenity, everything in Texas is obscene. So they could probably try and tie it into lolicon if they wanted to try.

>>88935That "is lolicon legal" map from a while ago already lists it illegal in texas. Either way, nothing has changed.

>>88935>they could probably try and tie it into lolicon if they wanted toThey can tie it into anything if they wanted to. That's the point of obscenity laws, it lets them suspend free speech when people say things they don't want said.
