If that's not the appropriate place to spread such information, then what is? If anything to me that's what such places should be about.
It's not your space to make that decision for. You are not the one who has potential problems if it draws negative attention. You aren't the one responsible if server admins choose to block that community due to the law-breaking information you're making available.
The appropriate place to share information that clearly instructed people on how to break the law is in private, or in a space you have created and control yourself.
It's uncool to demand others allow you to use spaces they are in charge of like this. Have a little respect for the people who actually created these spaces.
Idk, I think it's just kinda cringe honestly to be this overly-cautious on a relatively unknown forum no one cares about but fair enough, it's on the admins, it's their decision and their space, I won't respect them for that decision, though.
Fwiw to clarify, I did not link to DNMs and vendors and give instructions on the specifics of where and how to acquire illicit drugs, which is where for instance the issue becomes rule-breaking on places like /r/Drugs or /r/TransDIY, presumably to align with where it becomes legally troublesome, and used that as a baseline.
I don't agree with the determination either, and I definitely wouldn't run my own community that way
But I'm also a community admin elsewhere and have been doing that kind of stuff for like 25 years or something.
So I don't really begrudge any admin for deciding what things are off-limits for their community. It's up to me whether I participate there or not
Fair!
