Imgur to implement new policy: Ban on explicit images and deletion of unaccounted uploads

Imgur, the popular photo and GIF sharing platform, has announced a significant change to its Terms of Service that could result in the deletion of years of internet history. Effective May 15th, the website will be removing “old, unused, and inactive content” that’s not tied to a user account. This means that countless images posted on various websites across the internet could disappear overnight. Additionally, Imgur will be banning “nudity, pornography and sexually explicit content” even if they were uploaded by someone with an account.
