Didn’t stuff like Tumblr and PornHub collapsed because half assed counter CP measures were implemented also in half assed way?
I don't think tumblr was specifically about cp, its new owners suddenly just said yeah we don't want it to be known for porn, and they deleted everything, so everyone left including the tumblrinas that were the proving grounds for era-style takes
The Pornhub purge was mostly about copyrighted materials and content already caught up in pending lawsuits.
Payment providers basically forced them to verify all uploads, studios and models. It was never about a specific type of content.
Tumblr destroyed themselves it wasn't just porn that they banned or walled off but in the process a ton of other content as well.
They ruined the search to a point that you didn't even bother using it anymore and it became impossible to find new Tumblrs.
The public perception was very clearly about that, dude.
Nobody in the world gives a shit about "copyrighted material" uploaded on porn sites, that's why they pushed the CP angle.
The fight about privacy is one that's already lost anyway, even without these goofy methods, people are more than happy to give away their privacy willingly in the name of convenience, strangers' approval, etc.
Or they wouldn't be posting every detail of their lives on social media 24/7.
I am curious to see when/if they'll extend this to more generic "hateful material" like PayPal is hinting at, that could bite a lot of people in the ass, but it'd be funny to see.
