Yes. I think so. The chances of some well meaning forums being taken down by this law is zero.

That's simply not true when you see the owners of these forums throwing in the towel because of the compliance requirements.

  • I threw in the towel long ago before any of these laws with massive fines were put in place. People were already running scripts to upload CSAM then report their own CSAM automatically to registrars, dns providers, CDN's, etc... This was around the time a couple alternatives to Akamai CDN's were growing really fast and I have my suspicions about who these people are but either way I got rid of my forums and stopped lurking here. It has been a wonderful 9 year vacation.
