I don't know how reddit even operates while having subreddits dedicated to hardcore pornography and extreme gore and violence on the same domain as sfw subreddits. Youtube, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, do not allow those type of things for a reason, because once young children start using the site and the parents/ media find out what their kids could be looking at, their is a large amount of outrage. Reddit seems to have not had that problem, because it is not as popular and harder to use for < 13 year old demographics, but if reddit keeps pushing an easier to use layout and keeps expanding, then they are gonna run into this problem at some point.

Reddit definitely had that problem in the past. As an example they had a “jailbait” forum which they only took down when CNN ran a long story about it at primetime.

Heh, recently 4chan moved their SFW boards to a different domain. I imagine it was so they could have advertisers happy in there while keeping the other one intact.
