"What content is it that's contentious?" Areas of Concern: What Ofcom Is Examining 1. Failure to Respond to a Statutory Information Request On 14 April 2025, Ofcom requested that 4chan provide a copy of its Illegal Content Risk Assessment, a requirement under the Act. As of now, 4chan has not responded to this official request . 2. Lack of a Risk Assessment Platforms in scope of the Act must conduct and retain a documented illegal content risk assessment by 16 March 2025. Ofcom is investigating whether 4chan has failed to complete or retain such an assessment . 3. Non-Compliance with Illegal Content Safety Duties Under Section 10 of the Act, user-to-user services like 4chan must: Implement proportionate systems to prevent illegal and harmful content (including child sexual abuse material, extremist content, etc.) from appearing or lingering on their platform. Swiftly remove such content once identified . ______ You'd think that the headbangers on here would be delighted that Ofcom are doing their due diligence to protect British kids from the kind of shit there is on 4chan, but obviously here there's an opportunity to accuse the left of being censorship-happy, so, you know, whatever. | |||

"The government of the day have a duty to protect their citizens, especially the young and vulnerable. All countries have some form of regulatory protection on things like movies, food, pharmaceuticals, vehicles etc so why not online content? This is hypocrisy by the US who are just protecting their industries." Indeed. Some will censor a book about a trans rabbit, but demand free speech for race hatred. Left and right are both hypocritical. | |||

"Despite 2 tier Kier sitting in the Oval Office with the US president and vice president, promising that the restrictions they want to impose on free speech in the UK won’t and I quote “impact American systems”, Ofcom have notified a US business that operates the website 4chan (not one I’m familiar with myself) with a legal notice that they are under investigation and have issued a “provisional notice of contravention”and that content may be censored and possible fines of £20,000 plus daily penalties. The companies lawyers have called on their government to intervene in protecting 1st Amendment rights and has served notice that any fines will need to be upheld by federal courts in the US, which they will defend. Can’t see a federal court in the US ruling against the first amendment rights of its citizens so what’s the point? Trump and Vance warned Starmer not to censor US companies and yet here we are. Search for black belt barrister on YouTube for more details which is where I saw it. Are we heading for a diplomatic incident between Starmer and Trump? " I really…. Really…. Really don’t think you want to hold up “4chan” as your saviours here If you don’t know the site… go and have a look for 5 minutes since you say you don’t know about them  | |||

What a very strange accusation to make. I assume you have some previous comments of mine that you wish to draw attention to, where I have expressed something that supports your claim? I look forward to seeing that in your next post. Also, what are you implying that I need saving from? Tyranny? Totalitarian government? People shouldn’t fear their government, government should fear the people. But when members of Labour local government want to cut people’s throats and commit mass murder, then perhaps you’re right, we need to fear the government. I have zero interest in the site, my interest is in two tier kier deliberately trying to sabotage the UKs relationship with the US government. Which site it was is irrelevant. If you don’t mind me doing so, can I give you a small tip regarding my posts? It might save you some time in the future. As a general rule, I say exactly what I mean. I may occasionally infer something rather than be literal, but that’s usually to avoid breaking a forum rule, or to encourage someone to do some research and find out for themselves. Or just for sarcasm or comedy value. Encouraging others to do their own research is often a good thing to do in here for all sorts of reasons. And comedy is constantly being attacked by a certain section of society so I like to exercise that right before they petition “their saviour” (see what I did there, comedy and sarcasm lol) to ban it. I’m sure some people will now be frantically searching through every single post in the forum, hoping to find a little nugget that they can hail as proof of something. It’s strange the things people find important but we still have some freedoms, for now. But please remember two things. Firstly is did say “usually”. And secondly, we are a couple and we both post in the forum. Now enjoy your rabbit hunt 😊 Perhaps Starmer’s next move will be to quit nato and form a military alliance with Hamas?

" This governments (and the previous one for that matter, and the Blair government) actions to protect British kids from harm is hardly a shining beacon of world class policing. So, how does an act of parliament impact an American company with no offices or subsidiaries in the UK? What power does Ofcom have in reality in such an instance? So back to my original point. If that’s what you’re going to do, why sit in the Oval Office and blatantly lie to the us president and vice president? Why not have the balls to say “well if American companies break our laws in our country, they will be perused”. If that’s the right thing to do, say so. Why lie on the world stage? | |||

"Does anyone take anything serious on 4chan? I thought it was just a place to take the piss out of others on" Given what happens on mainstream channels quite openly now such as watching a Kick Streamer being tormented to death in France by his friends 4chan isn’t the real issue. It’s a wider societal problem than a load of neck beards in their mums basement. | |||
