I somehow was two days late to the article with info from the #tumblr engineer who kwit.Anyway if you didn't hear, tl;dr this was in the works 6 months (not a surprise) because #Verizon fatcats think they can double the userbase in 2019 (umm..) and thus want to clean it up for advertisers (not a surprise).Mixing profit motive and #SocialMedia will *always* end this way. Always.https://www.vox.com/the-goods/2018/12/4/18126112/tumblr-porn-ban-verizon-ad-goals-sex-work-fandom#InternetCulture #Capitalism #Brands
