SwimTorrent said in a post that they still have to adhere to Turners Standards and Practices, so no uncut shows.


Wait how does that work out if its through the net?

"If you enter you agree to our terms of service and state that you are 18 years of age or older. If you are not at least 18 years of age please click here" (which will redirect you to either the last page you were visiting or the home page).

Porn sites and gambling sites do the exact same thing so why is [AS] being targeted or discriminated? Some grimey acts of corps going down IMO.

Oh, and a dollar says one of the archived episodes is "Boo Boo Runs Wild"

I'm still trying to find out what [as] sees in that abomination. I'll never look at Yogi Bear the same again... Shocked

Because there's no real way to verify whether or not someone is actually 18, so they're forced to play it safe.

In other words we're back whre we started more or less. It's completely speculation and unconfirmed, still the possibilities do seem very tempting and hopeful.

Nor do any of the sites that I mentioned either. Face it the FCC knows what we want so they went out of their way to deny it to us. Once again [AS] is unfairly being targeted.
