Certain famous US websites host any 2D content without problems and US-based Cloudflare protect ANY content from abuse(incl. isis propaganda), from what I've seen.

It's a damn shame some people are so close minded with some of that stuff. I've seen so many people accuse fans of Loli or Shota to be pedophiles. Now, I'm not saying there isn't any overlap, but liking those doesn't mean you want to fuck a kid. The people saying it creates pedophiles are annoying as hell too. Their thought process isn't much different from those blaming shootings on video games.

Hell, there are a few of my hentai fetishes that I would find absolutely horrifying if a real life equivalent to them existed.

Imagine this situation:
Goverments: bans porn in any kind of shape and medium
Sexual violence crimes don't go down, they increase
Goverments: Surprise pikachu face

From what I've read about this the closing down was not entirely about the porn itself, but more to do with copyrighted material being hosted (without permission). Thus moving it out of the Netherlands won't help since it seems to effect any EU member state. I have no idea where Dynasty's servers are located so I don't know if this might happen later to this site as well (I hope it won't though).

I think (at least with individual images) that Dynasty asks the artist if it's okay to post their art here before uploading it to the site so Dynasty (probably) won't be in the same situation as Sadpanda was. Although since I'm not an uploader or know much details about how stuff works behind the scenes so I could be entirely mistaken. On an unrelated note thankfully both 4chan and (Reddit I think) are both hosted in the US so they (hopefully) won't be affected by the EU decision.

I'm not really sure about that considering E-Hentai is still up just fine for the moment. E-Hentai and ExHentai are effectively the same site, both using the same database, just with E-Hentai hiding loli and such.

No, it was because allegations from the host that the content (read loli an shota) was illegal. Right now it seems that is not, but either way the host terminated their services.

Not really. Dynasty host copyrighted material, which according to new EU laws is enough to shut down entire site and put a insanely high fine for each individual copyright infringement, so the fact the serve is in the France is a big deal.

Gotta love the Thought Police telling people what they can think and feel. In this one way, Netherlands and China are one and the same. You can't preserve freedom of expression without people being able to make things or say things that you might not like.

So can any mod help clarify the possibilities of what may happen with this site now? There's a lot of speculation going on

Well it wasn't just loli. It had craptone of stuff including vanilla and even some safe for work series. Imagine if your favorite porn site got taken down just because some of its content was controversial. Unless you don't watch porn ever, then screw you damn prude!, I mean think of something you use often. Seriously, imagine dynasty being taken down. First. it's a lot of hassle for everything to be saved and re-uploaded. It assumes someone actually bothered to back-up everything and that they also are interested in running new site from the ground. It's not easy and if you keep taking it down, at some point people will just give up. Also it's hassle for people who use it. New accounts, lost posts, lost favorite lists etc. And you act as if taking down decades old site and just making new one in it's place wasn't that big of a deal. That's is pretty arrogant and ignorant. Maybe you should think a bit more, because next time it can happen to something you enjoy,

That goes very personnal here. I can say that i don't care about something like that no ? I don't say you don't have be trigger by that, i just said that i personnaly feel nothing about that

Ironically Porn site tend to be very strict with controversial content because unlike doujin it's real sex with real person. And for the record, yes i watched porn but i don't think that matter in the discusion.

If there is news to be shared, we'll share it in a further News post. For the time being, everyone is welcome to carry on as though everything is fine on our end. Rest assured, we'll not be pulling a Sadpanda and hopping off quickly as we given everyone six hours to save what they want.

In the meantime, further speculations about Dynasty's fate ought to be kept to a minimum. At this point the discussion amounts to theories based on speculation based on further speculation. Nothing to be gained from that.

Because it's very personal. You feeling nothing is exactly the issue. People ignore stuff like that and don't act, because "it doesn't affect me", but don't realize it's just matter of time before it'll happen to something they enjoy and then it'll be too late. It's nice being in majority, but sooner or later it'll affect you and then you'll meet with the exact same reaction you gave. And just like that they'll take everything from us piece by piece and when nothing will be left, people will wonder how it came to this and why nobody did anything about it.

I was joking. I wanted to cover my basis in case you'd reply with "I don't watch porn". I see you lack sense of humor as much as basic empathy.

I'm jus bad as catching irony in general.

Then what peoples do exactly ? Because complaining on Internet isn't gonna change anything. It's good to be mad about that but if don't put you speech into acts, it's not worth.

You feeling nothing is exactly the issue.

I rarely feel anything about outside world, it's kinda a selfish way to live to till nothing happen to me, i rarely care. Dunno if leaving in a Care Bears world is a good thing at all but i want to stay in as long as i can.
