Not intentionally - but in the past I did have advertisements to finance it , which I had to stop since that is enough under a lot of jurisprudence to qualify as running a for-profit, which usually means less leniency from judges.

So it is advertisements where we should draw the line -- websites with advertisements should require age checks?

Why did you cherry pick advertisments from my reply and run with that?

It clearly isn't just a singular data point that is a True or False that would include a site in the ban.

Perhaps it should be, "If I had a 12 year old daughter, do I want her to have easy access to pornography, self harm material and the ability to receive private messages from a 45 year old registered sex offender?"

I get your point - "Where is the line in the sand?" and it's a valid point but no need to argue in bad faith.
