Sorry for being thick but who’s 4chan?
According to their official website 4chan is this:
4chan is a simple image-based bulletin board where anyone can post comments and share images. There are boards dedicated to a variety of topics, from Japanese animation and culture to videogames, music, and photography.
On this website it mentions why it is controversial.

Exactly people are complaining about Tattle yet what I have read about 4chan makes me shudder as some of the things look awful and sound disturbing.

Some boards are not for the faint-hearted but 4Chan's certainly not as bad as its reputation makes out. IMO /b lost its bite a long time ago.

Not looked at it for a good few months, but it's not as bad as it was 15 years ago. But that still doesn't mean it's good.
 
I think they know they'll get nowhere with fines etc. But this act is a way to force all companies in the UK to block a site so they're going through these steps to get it blacklisted.

Yeah, they realistically know that US courts will never uphold any fines or restrictions on US sites, so they'll just block them.

I do wonder how successful that will be

Did anyone follow Kiwifarms and their whole saga with some trans creator? That seems to have ended mostly in their favour as it seems that they have remained on the same domain for the last couple of months. They then had the site locked to UK users because of the Online Safety Act coming into force but it’s now back up open as normal

At worst it gets locked to UK users because Ofcom has gone through courts (which is probably time consuming and expensive) and people just get VPNs - if you’re using the likes of 4chan you’re probably knowledgable enough to know about VPNs so it doesn’t really do anything long term

It's all about saving time and not needing to go thru the courts to block a website.
GHCQ cant be happy that so many will now be using VPNs and what once was easily traceable is now hidden.
 
VPN usage is identifiable to tell when someone is using it. But not easily traceable and they can't force non UK owned VPNS to give over data.
