> Break the system. Flood it with bogus complaints until the people in charge learn why anonymous accusations are a bad idea.

I’m surprised this hasn’t happened already. Since it’s anonymous I would expect 4chan to flood all these stupid policies.

Maybe they selectively review and pursue.

Reminds me of pushback against DeBlasio's "snitch line."

New York City had to shut down its social-distancing 'snitch-line' after it was flooded by trolls brandishing penis pictures and Hitler memes

Americans can be really awesome from time to time. We don't suffer well, and I'm happy for it.

You expect 4chan to fight against anonymity?

Not necessarily.. but they have been known to fight against (ridicule) certain forms of stupidity in the past. Which I feel many here would agree Stanford's policy is a form of.

I expect 4chan to abuse anonymous reporting systems to troll people.
