Subvert the Adult Content policy - Disobey, don't comply!

Our collective refusal to snitch on adult content and conduct (see Don't Snitch campaign) would give a much needed part of subverting the implementation of the announced policy change on Adult Content. As you probably know, Linden Lab depends on the abuse report system for control: "we [...] rely on abuse reports that identify adult content or conduct that is promoted or advertised publicly".
We will need to couple our refusal to snitch with actively and loudly proclaiming that we do so; to proclaim that we will actively defend our freedom of speech and expression! For we have to agitate and inform to get this part of the subversion widespread and provide a layer of unity and trust in opposition to LL. A layer of unity and trust that will surely boost the confidence of us all in the possibility of successfully opposing the measures Linden Lab is about to release on the SL world in name of public relations to court the corporations, universities and governments.

But above all, and most important for our success, our collective refusal to snitch will provide a layer of trust for another big part of successfully opposing the policy. It will make it easier to get a broad basis with those of you in charge of the Adult communities, stores, clubs etc to refuse compliance with the Adult Content policy.

Our chance of opposing and halting the implementation lies in collective and widespread refusal to comply with the policy and this consists for a significant part out of non-compliance by adult venues:
- Refusal to relocate to the new Adult continent Ursula;
- Refusal to age verify with the Aristotle company;
- Refusal to flag your content;
- Refusal to abuse report Adult content and conduct!

Civil disobedience because we all are Adult Content!
Refuse to abide by rules that are impossible to enforce and trump on our freedom of speech and expression! Freedoms that are very much part of the Second Life world and which make up a significant part and reasons for its growth, attraction, success and life.
We all are Adult Content! Don't comply!

Unite and organise!

Firstly, this post you comment on, is not even 3 months old, let alone 1 year. Secondly, much of our discussions happen within SL during meetings and other events. Thirdly, how does no response imply dumbness?

But yes, too bad most people in SL simply complied with the new AC policy, where we had real possibility to subvert the complete implementation.

don't feed the trolls, Smoke
