Does this happen often?
curiousg··on The unnecessary demise of Barnes and Noble
Nothing about the comment gave the impression that the author isn't familiar with those concepts.
curiousg··on 1.5 TB of Dark Net Market scrapes
Possession laws are pretty strict and hard to decode. I wouldn't want to be the test case in court. The idea of "poisoning" a dataset is an interesting theoretical. But in practice, I just want to judge the likelihood that the dataset is poisoned by the presence of images. If it is then there's not much I can do with it.

What amazing work! I am very interested in doing research with Tor and a dataset like this could make my job a heck of a lot easier. I have a legal question though: Are your scrapes text only? Before I work with this dataset, I want to make sure that there's no possibility it contains illegal images (child porn).
