Recently Tumblr has changed their terms of service and has made it so that if your blog is marked as "adult", none of your posts will show up in the tags, and your blog cannot be searched for. This is basically a way to censor us, which is everything that Tumblr is not supposed to do. Tumblr is supposed to be freedom to post what we want. What I suggest is that Tumblr adds a setting that you can select saying that you would like to continue seeing adult blogs in tags that you search. I feel this is something that everyone could agree to and be happy with. Please sign this to support continued freedom on Tumblr.

I am currently compiling a formal briefing document to send directly to the Tumblr safety and policy team. This report outlines the specific impact these search restrictions have on user visibility and site engagement. I will provide a summary of their response as soon as they acknowledge receipt.

This is ridiculous. It feels like they are just trying to kill the site on purpose at this point. Stop censoring people.
