Forum deletions due to the UK Online Safety Act

Viewed 31
The UK Online Safety Act requires platforms that allow user interactions to address illegal content and enforce age verification. This has led to a large forum with 2.6M posts being deleted, highlighting how stringent regulations can impact smaller platforms. Discussions in the comments suggest frustration among forum operators who believe these laws could push users towards anonymity tools like Tor, and raise concerns about censorship in Europe. There are also questions about the adequacy of systems like vBulletin to comply with these requirements, indicating a potential gap in software capabilities.
