4chan fine may test if US will intervene to block UK’s Online Safety Act.

If 4chan continues to ignore Ofcom, the forum could be blocked in the UK. And 4chan could face even bigger fines totaling about $23 million or 10 percent of 4chan’s worldwide turnover, whichever is higher. 4chan also faces potential arrest and/or “imprisonment for a term of up to two years,” the lawsuit said.

    gonna be honest, I didn’t read anything past this part.

    So in your scenario here, 4chan starts off by smuggling alcohol into the UK.

    I didn’t read any of it because you clearly didn’t read what I said.

    here’s the part you conveniently forgot and it literally changes the entire argument.

    some enterprising individuals have taken it upon themselves to buy, smuggle, and then sell those beverages inside the UK.

    next time you want to argue your point don’t employ the use of bad faith tactics and try to argue your point without manufacturing flaws.

      LOL okay but you said:

      now, do you still think the UK government has a right to fine 4chan or do you think maybe the UK government should elaborate on their prohibition regulations to ensure their citizens are properly “protected”?

      I went ahead and edited it for you so it says enterprising individuals… which you end up asking about 4chan anyways
