Supposing I’m Fred The Fed and I want to shut down Hexbear.net
What if I try to make a case that admins tolerate sharing copyrighted material in violation of Statute XYZ, so the site is illegal and should be seized.
You might say, “Copyright laws are dumb, man! Who cares!” but that doesn’t matter. Tell that to the law.
Should we get a lawyer’s advice on this? What steps does the site need to take to avoid heat?
idk dog, we didn’t censor ourselves on reddit despite threat of community deletion, i fail to see why we ought to do so on “our” platform
there are also bigger fish to fry piracy-wise, even just on lemmy
This is my point. It’s fine to say that, but that sort of point isn’t gonna count for anything if they decide to come after you.
Could host the site in a country that hates america?
