Expose them to too much radiation and they end up growing actual tentacles.

Can't win.

Tumblr ban will be a slow process as they have to go through billions of posts. They apologize for flagging sfw posts, but won't reverse anything unless users appeal. They also apologized to the lgbt community, but have no plans to reverse their decision.

I feel like this notion that tumblr as a platform can't survive without porn is a bit hard to swallow.

[6souls]

It will survive without porn, but a lot of the bullshit that @staff has been implementing over time have been put up with because porn still existed. They also have an "algorithm" that flags almost anything as suggestive, even puppies. It will limp on, but it will go the way of myspace, friendster, livejournal, etc.

Fucking gross at least put an NSFW tag.

I have tens of thousands pics and videos saved within my likes. I am very interested to see how this all goes down. Will they delete it all or just replace it with their "this is not allowed" image?

If anyone is curious, the underlined is how they're going about it.

And no. Actually it looks like this;

But, only on the mobile app. The web page allows everything to be seen.

Tumblr has now removed the "appeal" button from flagged posts.

Your PNGs are gonna become JPEGs and you're going to like it!

Basically kills the current workaround artists have been using wherein they upload a .png with 1 pixel of transparency to prevent twitter from compressing your image.

I believe this is what the young folks call ratio'd.
