However, if we have pretty good reason to believe that an image is a trace of actual child pornography, it might be different.
How does the Gelbooru administration team define Cheese Pizza? The illustration's source material is legally ambiguous. I heard it was banned in Japan, but is in a grey-area internationally. Nudist pictures - which are literally no different - get legal immunity, whereas vanilla nudes from a photobook published by the photographer get put in the book-burning bonfire.
I'm curious how you guys handle legal nuances. The illustration I linked to is somewhat low-quality; posted in 2009, looks like it was made in 2001.
Photos of nude children are legal in the USA if three conditions are met: 1. The photo does not draw attention to/focus on the genitals except for use in medical practice. (Circumcision/pediatric gynecology etc.) 2. There is no sexual stimulation of the genitals. 3. The photo was taken in public or else with the permission of the child and parent/guardian.
Laws in other countries and in the separate states may very. I'd say a derivative drawing based on such a photo would also be legal.
As for how we handle it; if it where proven that an illustration where traced from such a photo then the site owner may likely wish to have such posts removed anyway.
"It was banned in Japan" If it was uncensored in 2001 then it's distribution would have been illegal in Japan at the time.
I want to upload some gravure idol WebMs. But the problem is, I saved my favorite moments from each and they're usually from 2 to 10 minutes long. Should I trim them to under 1 minute? Or should I just for example cut a 5 minute video into 5 parts and upload them all?
Hi guys, just a quick question. Is it possible to reupload a picture without deleting/reuploading the whole post? I'm asking because I would like to fix a translation of a pic I've uploaded and I don't know which is the correct way to do it. Thanks in advance for the answer.
