Is involuntary pornography

How will this affect stuff like /r/amateur and /r/realgirls and /r/SluttyHalloween ?

I think that this refers to having photos taken of you, not controlling how people see the content you release personally.

From what I've seen so far, as soon as any of those communities attract any negative attention or potentially hurt Reddit's revenue stream (advertisers complain about them) they will be banned. Just mentioning them here probably puts them at some risk.

The description seems much more aimed at the 'cannot legally consent' club: underage, etc. I think it was worded that way to specifically include things like /r/creepshots (which got banned years[?] ago with the /r/jailbait etc bans). If someone in the photo seems aware and ok with the photo being taken of them, it's probably enough to assume it was voluntary.

Ah reddits money cow: Pornography.

If your really examine it probably 90 percent of the porn that shows up on reddit is involuntary (10 percent is GW). IE nobody gave consent to have their pictures uploaded on imgur or linked on reddit. In fact you could go further and much of the content linked on reddit never had permission at all to be linked in the first place.

But if you post "creeper" shots on reddit even if they make thier rounds on the internet: boy howdy! Thats involuntary! Take it down that subreddit!

In short to answer you question if people complain about it they will start banning things.

It's already been in place for months. People have been able to request their pictures be removed if they're posted unwillingly.

All banned, and /r/gonewildcouples too.

Unless they are going to start collecting releases.

And for that matter, as I've asked before, who is verifying the people posting in all these amateur subs are over 18?

It won't. What they say and what they do is completely different.

The third is hardly pornography.
