Freedom of speech at Fanfiction.net, bring back NC-17 fic. sign now

Recently fanfiction.net decided to remove all NC-17 rated fiction from it's site. They issued the following statement.

NC-17 based entries will no longer be accepted. Though they are very small portion of the site the adult stories have generated almost all of the complaints filed on record in the past year. Moreover, the highest concentration of them are growing in areas with subjects targeted to younger readers and with increasingly controversial subject matters. However, not all NC-17 based stories fall into the description but as result of their increasing volume a decision has been made to resolve this problem. Innocent writers will be affected but this has to be done considering the non-filtering scheme of the site.

As a writer I find this unfair that this sort of fiction is been removed for the very reasons it is rated that in the first place. People complaining shouldn't be reading it, rating systems are there for a reason. 'controversial subject matter'is what makes it NC-17, and it's not aimed at younger readers, it's rated NC-17 so younger readers DON'T read it.

So if you believe this is unfair and wish to continue reading and posting NC-17 material on fanfiction.net please sign this petition!
