It is so funny how people jump in on the ideas of "Mangadex turn corpo" because of this incident AND the Twitter article (their first one article mind you) that isn't officially from Mangadex.

Yes, they may fumble hard this one. Doesn't mean spreading misinformation and false rumor doing any good for the situation. The internet are becoming more strict day by day with the data collecting, glorified as "age verification" so things like this might happened more frequent than you might think

Dude have you seen the way they've been talking in this thread and elsewhere? How they have suddenly yoinked up all this stuff about copyright? Honestly, I can keep going but anyone with eyes can see what's on the horizon. It's not "misinformation" or "rumours", we can literally see what they've done, what they're doing, and make predictions based on the evidence of our eyes.

I did say it in this thread before, deleting manga without prior notice to uploader is bad, removing metadata, update the rules without notifying user AND Admin out of all people calling your user pdf are all unforgivable

However, the legal aspect could be understandable, mostly because UK and other started to enforce those “for children” stuff.

You either remove few one or have the whole site taken down and the company behind (I forget the name) are the one doing the check from what I understanding.

I will eat my word and leave if they turn corpo :huh:

They will never answer either of these questions. Which is particularly dumb for the titles removed.

Instead what will happen is more and more titles and all of their chapters that have been on Mangadex for years now will continue to be removed silently. And that promise to restore titles removed to preserve metadata will never happen.

Mods, at this point can we have the thread renamed 'Conspiracy Theories: Easier than Facts'? :meguu:
Wouldn't as big of a problem if there was communication and transparency.

As long as there is neither we will continue to be accused of spreading misinformation and being friends with Jeffrey when trying to guess what is happening

They are LITERALLY registered as a company now, there is NO reason for a piracy website to do that unless they're planning to go "legit."

Thinking about it, what about series like Witches Of Adamas? By your definition that series I worked on would be wiped off of MD...
There's a pornographic series that's wayyy more popular than Stray Cat Girl that's explicitly between highschoolers that's still up and apparently unthreatened. I don't know if it's double standards or just poor moderation, but either way it's pretty funny.
