Hi Claudio,

We're talking about the content of these shows only. I have no problem with the host posting other shows that do not bring the law down on us. While hosts enjoy the advantages of anonymity, the Janitors, Hosting Providers, and Patron do not. The justice system knows where we live, and will not afford us the luxury of 3 strikes.

I know it's rather simplistic and might not be the best option, but I'm tossing it out there: a 3-strikes policy. Maybe this time, give the benefit of the doubt, but with a stern warning that the next time it will not be allowed. Just a thought.

    Hi All,

    You may remember
    
<http://hackerpublicradio.org/pipermail/hpr_hackerpublicradio.org/2022-March/015174.html>
    that back in March a host submitted a show that we had some
    problems with. We didn't go into details at the time as I wanted
    to give the host the benefit of the doubt. Suffice to say that
    were the show posted, I was looking at a considerable fine and up
    to a year in prison. In the end the host got back to us and
    decided to post it else where. As it turns out that platform also
    did not post the content in my region for the same reasons.

    We now have another show from the same host and it has content
    that would bring us other legal issues, as well as violating the
    terms and conditions of our hosting providers. The host is not
    responding to my emails, presumably they are out camping again.

    While our policy on censorship states "We do not vet, edit,
    moderate or in any way censor any of the audio you submit," it
    continues ",we trust you to do that
    <https://hackerpublicradio.org/stuff_you_need_to_know.php#not_moderated>."
    While this host was given the benefit of the doubt the first time,
    I feel that by immediately posting another show like this they
    have betrayed the trust of the Janitors, Hosting Providers,
    Patrons, and the wider HPR community.

    As you can imagine even having the show in the future feed is a
    bit risky, but we can not allow it to hit the main feed until the
    entire HPR community has had time to decide how to proceed. We
    will bring this up on the next community news and allow
    discussions as to how we deal with this stuff going forward. Up
    until now it has not been necessary but alas apparently now it is.

    So I am once again asking you to allow me to move the problem show
    out so the host has time to get back to me.

    FYI: The cc list has been included on all correspondence.
