Fucking WHY? If you told me 4chan was in fact the only website in the world blocked for 16 and under that would make more sense to me...

Really makes you question the logic behind their choices of who to enforce and who not too.

My guess is that when 4chan said fuck off, they couldn’t do shit to enforce anything. Everyone else just bootlicking likely. Vacuuming up user info.

Wouldn't want to do anything to stop the radical right from recruiting children.

What could possibly go wrong?

Isn’t 4chan an +18 site with nsfw boards?

[–] FistingEnthusiast@lemmynsfw.com 4 points 1 month ago

It's an absolute disaster, full of the worst sort of dickheads

They don't care if someone is under 18 whatsoever
