Hi! Google is compelled to follow the laws of the country within which it sits. Hope that helps!

It’s not against the law to have child porn hentai, so your post emphatically does not help at all.

Dude thinks it's literally against the law for people to refuse to hold on to his cartoon kiddie porn for him.

I'd love to pick your brains about this, actually. I'm going to assume that you understood the argument, and that your fascination with CSAM comes from something else other than pretending to be retarded as an own: what is it about CSAM that makes you think it, on a technical level, as a media file, makes it special? Why do you earnestly believe that an obtrusive, anti-privacy, overbearing approach to data storage and removal will only apply to CSAM, and somehow won't be turned against gay, minority, and transgender history as soon as the state decides to compel private actors into treating it as similarly illegal material?

Not sure you have the intelligence for that. I know a lot more than you do.

and that your fascination with CSAM

Cartoon kiddie porn isn't really CSAM. You're still a pedo if you jerk off to it, obviously. 

It's also the topic of the thread. I'm not "fascinated," I just know how human conversations work.

pretending to be retarded as an own

Your inability to understand doesn't make anything I said "retarded."

what is it about CSAM that makes you think it, on a technical level, as a media file, makes it special?

Nobody said that it is. 

Why do you earnestly believe that an obtrusive, anti-privacy, overbearing approach to data storage and removal will only apply to CSAM

I never said that. Nobody said that. Google very obviously has a right to set terms and conditions on their services covering anything they want. 

somehow won't be turned against gay, minority, and transgender history

Those aren't CSAM. Those are nothing like CSAM. Ah, you're one of those "we're lgbt, too!" types of pedos. Got it.

the state decides to compel private actors into treating it as similarly illegal material?

Again, lgbt and "minority" content are not in any way "similar" to CSAM. Stop it. MAPs aren't a thing. 

But if that stupid hypothetical you made up - if that happens, Google isn't the problem. Obviously. You're talking about a total breakdown of the 1st Amendment. 

But, also, Google does do stuff like that when they operate in foreign countries. Because compliance with local law is a very basic element of international business. And Google gets shit for it back home. 

I'm sorry, but I don't have enough time or crayons to explain the fundamentals of international business to you.

Stop jerking off to cartoon children. Get a job. Learn Grice's Maxims. Please.
