All you have to do with Imgur is to set your images as hidden (orange indicator) so they are not browsable. Using the direct link still works. I've been doing it ever since. Imgur is in fact a very reliable platform since they don't censor and don't pull down your images. They are with the resistance.
Likely images that were not hidden. I so far haven't had anything taken down. If pictures are incriminating then I wouldn't be surprised. Can you point to some thread somewhere where Imgur was an issue? Not that I don't believe you but I'd like to see a tangible situation to make up my own mind.
I just don't understand why you'd argue for people to take such a risk if they have a history of removing un-hidden content?
Have you not seen all of voat complain about imgur? They do it because imgur has a shady history. There was some big issue about slimgr (named slimgr to make fun of imgur) and them doxxing imgur's staff, a bunch of fatties. The imgur staff allegedly flooded the slimgr servers with child porn and got that image host taken down, allegedly.
Either way they have a bad reputation and I would prefer to use other services
I didn't know about that being an issue here on voat. Interesting background story. I'll add it to the mental database. Thinking over what you just said, wouldn't Imgur staff be busted for posting and getting their hands on CP to begin with? What made them get off-the-hook in that?

Fully aware of all the crap these people can do, and YOU STILL USE IMGUR TO HOST THE EVIDENCE IMAGES.
This is getting ridiculous. I thought you DIDN'T want to fuel these evil groups.
There is no excuse for this kind of foolishness from pizzagate investigators.
Look, a robot did your job for you

You didn't have to be such a dick about it. A simple "From now on, do it this way..."
Chill out. This member has only been here for 1 month.

This is not true, they'll remove stuff and they've done so in the past.
