That is a narrow niche but “I’ll tentatively allow it”. I forgot about this—that in certain sectors, corporations have gained quasi-governmental powers. Social media sites being able to ban entire ideas from being discussed, the entities able to provide DDoS protection (which requires very large scale, creating a natural oligopoly) can choose not to protect sites that are expressing unpopular ideas. I guess it was “first they came for the ..” because I am not completely certain letting outright hate groups and conspiracy theorists coordinate with each other is a net societal good. But yes this is a problem right now, like you said, it’s not illegal under present law for someone to run a porn site that accepts user submissions, even if occasionally this means illegal content will remain on the site until reported. This is also what Stormfront/etc are as well—technically the illegal content gets removed after complaints are raised. (after giving the site viewers plenty of time to read it, of course)
