@pillowfort-io this is very, very disappointing. These kinds of ‘grey areas’ only leave openings for harassers. So many artists were looking to your website to protect them from false accusations of pedophilia like they endure here, but I can see that will not be the case. 

@xenoqueer @lines-and-edges @shipping-isnt-morality @freedom-of-fanfic @ace-inclusionist sorry to bother but i thought y’all might wanna see this unfortunate development

kinda bringing stuff back to fandom, but the pf's whole idea of a "we'll ignore context to moderate", apart from being full of holes, also is pretty terrible for fan content because context is important there? nsfw fan content often isn't just to get people's rocks off, but an extension of being invested in the characters and their relationships? and wanting to see the intimacy? like, literally that is why i, as an ace person, enjoy nsfw fannish stuff but don't really care about "normal" porn.

Decontextualizing stuff makes the job easier on their end, but makes the results worse on ours. This isn’t anything new with platform based censorship, not in fandom and not in trauma recovery.

Decontextualizing discussions of CSA, for example, is what caused strikethrough. Decontextualizing discussions of breasts is a major contributor to this tumblr purge.

Context fucking matters.

But even if you’re drawing explicit porn of, like, Madoka Magica where all the girls are 13-ish and they look it, the Madoka Magica girls aren’t real people and they cannot be fucking injured or traumatized by porn featuring their bodies because they do! not!! exist!!!!

That whole it’s fucking fictional aspect is, IMO, the most important piece of context of all, and it’s constantly being ignored in these conversations.

Goddamn it. At the worst possible time, too; with Tumblr going to shit (... worse shit than it already was) I don’t even have a backup social media at this point.

Everything about this is Terrible! If you thought this content was too Objectionable for your site, you should’ve had it in the TOS from the beginning! If you didn’t, why the fuck are you changing your minds all of a sudden, and trying to reassure us that other Objectionable content won’t also get this treatment in the future? I also gather that the “incident” referred to in the first paragraph involved pfio staff banning someone, with no warning, before these changes actually went into effect? fuck

Hey, does anyone know if pillowfort is sex work friendly? I haven’t seen any commentary from them about SESTA/FOSTA, and wouldn’t want to pay for a key if they’re gonna be the next site to throw sex workers under the bus
