Honestly the main thing that ticks me off about all this is @staff’s attitude. We all know this is happening because Tumblr was/is full of bots and child porn and got taken out of the app store for it.
They knew this forever and did nothing. Then their little pizza hands got slapped and suddenly innocent blogs are getting deleted left and right, and now this.
And the fanciful attitude in the announcements. That’s the worst part to me. That meek, half-hearted spin. Like they’re really accomplishing something here. Just say you fucked up and go, @staff.
Give you three to one that Tumblr’s “we’re banning adult content but will allow discussion of relationships and sexuality” policy is going to end up being strangely selective about what kinds of relationships and sexuality are exempted.
