So the biggest consequence of tumblr purging this website of n*s*f*w content is not that they’re deleting innocent blogs

Its that the tag LITERALLY doesn’t exist anymore, on mobile or on the desktop (and no, I don’t have safe mode turned on).

N*s*f*w content is not the problem – the problem was p*rn bots and ped*philia.

By COMPLETELY purging the n*s*f*w tag, tumblr is basically ensuring that people will stop tagging smut.

Because people aren’t going to stop drawing or writing it, that’s for sure. And a lot of fictional couples are of age, so why should they?

But if its just going to disappear if its tagged as not safe for work, PEOPLE ARE GOING TO STOP TAGGING.

Which means p*rn will no longer be filtered. Which means people who want to can no longer block it and safe mode is useless.

Good job tumblr. Way to take it too far again.
