I'm getting pretty paranoid bros, can they really arrest me and put me in prison just for using gelbooru and similar stuff? Can you really get arrested for 2D images that are legally available on the clearweb?
>>109883405Yep. I mean lolicon is illegal according to the UN if you take the wording literally, local governments like the USA just don't bother enforcing it unless it's convenient or it makes them look good.In general anime is an unregulated cesspool, if you were to take most animes (even the so-called SFW ones) and compare them against a typical legal document concerning obscenity or child safety or whatever, the vast majority of anime would fail to pass. It's only a matter of time until lawmakers catch up and basically end the wild west era of the internet.
>>109883405If you live in America you’re fine it’s still a legal grey area here. Just stick to cartoons. >>109883561The US is not bound by UN guidelines. We have our own laws. As long as you’re a US citizen residing in the country and you can afford a lawyer at the drop of a hat you’re safe.
>>109883589You missed the point. They're not guidelines (in legal theory, even though the USA treats them like guidelines in practice). In legal theory, where national and international law conflict, by default international law triumphs.
it depends. some of the shit they have on gelbooru is illegal even in the us.>have you reported itof course. they're just slow to take action. an example of a site that i would put in the actual legal grey area is baraag. they don't give a fuck over there. and i'm not just talking about the 3d stuff.
>>109883405I can maybe understand being like 15 and getting off to some taboo drawings but if you need to jerk off to realistic kid drawings past your early 20's even then you're probably a pedo
>>109883720I have no problem admitting a pedo, but that's not the problem here.
>>109883692No it doesn’t. The US has to sign specific treaties to adopt specific guidelines. The US is not legally bound to the decisions of the UN unless we adopt it ourselves. No nation is, the UN can only manage “international law” because the countries involved signed treaties and agreed to enforce those laws within their borders. You’ve got some more research to do.
>>109883923The USA has ratified the relevant UN treaties geniusYou have no idea what you're talking about lol. You're conflating "practical" with "theory" but these are not the same as I acknowledged earlier.
>>109884009Name the relevant treaties then anon!
>>109883405gelbooru itself is hosted in the usa because of how almost uniquely permissive american law is for lolicon material
>>109884170Optional Protocol to the Convention on the Rights of the Child on the sale of children, child prostitution and child pornography (OPSC), Article 2(C).I got this from a quick AI summary btw because I cannot for the life of me remember the name but I'm like 75% sure this is the one.
Do people really go to jail over drawings?
>>109883692>by default international law triumphs.get a load of this shiggidy
>>109884458Try printing your pic and hanging it on your property and see what happens
>>109884599Good thing I'm not from Goymerica
the point of the modern system of laws is not anyone's safety or even the smooth functioning of society or any shit, nor so much as a primitive idea of smiting the wicked. it's to make sure that absolutely everyone has broken the law so that you have to live in fear and anyone targeted by the authorities for any reason can be removed and discredited immediately
>>109884211This treaty itself doesn’t actually define laws or enforcement. It just says the nation will commit to doing so. But again the US has to pass laws ourselves to actually enforce it. You’re right that the treaty was signed and adopted but it doesn’t have any effect unless the US passes our own laws enforcing it, which hasn’t happened yet and is still a legal gray area.
>>109883405Don't worry, they have only 1-2 years to jail you, and AI will kill us in 3-4.A literal ASI god or WW3 is coming, do what you want.
>>109885241>male brain fantasy about a.i. being some cymek eldritch horror from terminator 5 that you... the main character - has to fight and stop.
>>109883405You cannot be arrested if you kill yourself like you should. Pedophilia is disgusting.

>>109883405>can they really arrest me and put me in prisonPeople in this thread are just glossing past the more pressing issue, that the powers that be can just drum up whatever charges they want and arrest anyone at any time, see >>109884671
>>109885261Fight? I'm transhumanist, I want my atoms to become the grey goo that feeds ASI.Also, I'm slightly shizo and think I am the demiurge, and sort of want to metaphysically rape an ASI after it kills humans, or develop a symbiotic relationship with it.Haha, you got that completely wrong!
