The link between hosting child porn and child protection is much more subject to argument. I'd suggest it is banned because enough people suspect the link to be there, not because of any certainty.
It is unfortunately common for terrible ideas to be shepherded in under the pretence of thinking about the children. There needs to be debate about costs and benefits of this stuff beyond the crystal clear parts. It isn't reasonable to just assume someone doesn't care about protecting children just because they're willing to host anything. Although in this case they are being rather disrespectful to the people who use the form and that doesn't sit well with me.
> I might care more once laws start protecting children from those in power more than used by those in power as a ploy to dismantle privacy from ordinary people.
In response to a thread comment regarding to the said hosting provider making it purposely difficult to report such matters...
