Cinn's Dungeon

I’d like to say goodbye. I decided against getting my account banned, but I’m deleting the app and don’t remember the login info, so this really is farewell. I followed as many people onto discord/twitter as I could, I just wish everyone was going. Best of luck to those sticking to this wasteland, hopefully we cross paths again one day.

Kind of crazy that porno music didnt have the power to remain universal. like maybe in the 70s if you heard that youd think damn thats sexy i wanna fuck now but if you heard that wakka wakka guitar and slap bass today? Youd just laugh and go “haha that sounds like porno music”. A product of its generation,

Besides nazis and the other assorted bigots the absolute worst people on this website are those ‘true crime’ freaks who love mass murdering white men and jerk off to uncensored CCTV footage of mass shootings

I’m mentioning this because like, this isn’t the first time that particular kind of scum has added comments to my posts and every time it happens it makes me want to delete my account knowing that tumblr/yahoo/Verizon is actively choosing to let them stay just to keep their ad revenue healthy

Everyone is panicking over TOS-es right now as they find a new home as Tumblr gets flushed down the toilet. I don’t like those random TOS breakdowns because the analysis is always wrong. 

Anyway this is what people pay me to do and I will now do it for $0 because I’m tired of everyone spreading misinformation. This post is not a substitute for legal advice etc. Reblogs are appreciated because I literally see TOS nonsense on my dash every day. 

Any more experienced copyright lawyers please feel free to weigh in - it’s part of my field yes, but my wheelhouse is more film production COT rather than derivative works.

Google Drive (TOS)

• Google doesn’t have rights to do whatever they want to files you upload to Google Drive
• Their TOSes are annoyingly broad in drafting but essentially boilerplate clauses that they need to host your work, use google translate on it, make it searchable etc. They cannot steal your fanfic. They cannot modify your art and use it for whatever.
• Your work MAY be threatened (that is, deleted) thanks to FOSTA/SESTA, which imo is a clown provision signed by a clown that sent safe harbour down the toilet. This and this has more information (I’ve skimmed but not perused both), but the tl;dr is: similar to Tumblr, there was a ham-fisted attempt to protect victims of sex trafficking and all it really did was make cloud based services start deleting user files whether relevant or not. 

deviantART (Submission Policy) (TOS)

• Uploading work to dA doesn’t give them a license to sell it to Hot Topic. This post is incorrect. Debunked here and corrected by the artist himself here. Your art is safe. 
  
• There’s a breakdown of the TOS in there that’s pretty much wrong on most points, if someone wants me to do a not-wrong version, ask. This may help.
• All you really need to know is that like Google, I checked it over and nothing in there puts you at risk for dA asserting ownership over your work or selling it - they need those rights for thumbnails, search functions, resizing etc. 
• Sexually explicit fanart is not allowed, as well as “obscenity”, which is an oddly broad term covering things like “sexually orientated commercial telephone messages”. 
• I’m not aware of any content purges.

AO3 (TOS)

• Yum. I like this one. Easy to read and clearly explained for most people with basic reading comprehension. Section G - What We Do With Content will tell you everything you need to know.
  
• Basically, they have the same clauses about you granting AO3 a license to modify/apart/etc you work, but they take the trouble to explain to you exactly what that means, and how they use it to improve accessibility etc. 
• No history of content purges as far as I know. Explicit content is allowed with limits eg. no child porn. 

Wordpress (TOS)

• Same deal - you’re looking for 1. Wordpress - Responsibility of Contributors, with the exact same thing as everybody else. They also do a decent job of explaining what they use the license for (though once again, it’s standard), albeit not as beautifully as AO3. 
  
• However, images of sexual acts (including fanart) are against TOS.
• I found no history of content purges.

Dreamwidth (TOS)

• Same old standard licensing clause, again doesn’t let them steal your stuff.
  
• Incredibly…open content policies…you can basically do whatever you want so long as you don’t break laws or commit fraud it seems? If I’m wrong, feel free to correct.

Hope this helps. Feel free to force me to read and explain any other site TOS documents. Again, more experienced copyright lawyers, feel free to correct me if I clowned up somewhere.

reblogging as a correction to my last post re DevArt, although since DevArt still doesn’t allow adult art, still not a great alternative to tumblr
