This matter has been discussed (outside of Fchan, I mean), because this case isn't new... FurCons, other sites, etcetera... they already explored this case before.

Now, some voted for a ban, for the sake of covering their butts.
Other's didn't gave in because, I imagine, they can't be pressed with charges.

I don't know where others stood on having legal advice, and I surely have not -paid- to a lawyer for advice on such a matter (it's not my fight. Fchan related, "my" cubs are still accessible on the good ol' /c/ as before)... but a small friendly chat with someone with a good amount of time on practice gave me such a secure interpretation as that.
If it's not a Human-esque depiction of a child, it cannot be associated with a potential threat to children due to similarities and whatnot (even if the fictional depiction is made out of head, rather than based on a existing child).
Thus, such a argument could be used as defense, which would make anyone wanting to bring up a case with such "evidence" as that of an animal anthropomorphic cub as a threat to children be already at a losing stance.


I haven't searched for anything of the sort, but, mind to tell me if you heard (and of course have some data to back that up) of any person/site/whatever that was sued and lost in such a situation?
Thus far, I heard about threats and the accused party simply giving up, rather than to take up any fight.
I head about how many people still stand up with this kind of art pretty much unworried about any legal processes.

I have not however heard someone being taken up to court on this case and losing, and the whole of the circumstances.
