Warning to UK residents

I have found out the hard way that much of the content on Fakku is infact illegal in the UK. My PC has been seized by the police, I am facing charges fot posession of indecent images of a child and face anything from a community sentence to actual prison time.

My PC did not contain real CP, nor did I even have lolis on it. Just girls in Japanese highschool range (16-18). Most all of this was from Fakku (or torrents of Fakku content). Turns out the police are tracking this type of content.
If you need an example of the type of content I am in trouble for, search for the artist Jingrock. Though the girl depicted is clearly not a loli and could easily be of age, she is wearing a school uniform and I believe mentions this fact too. This makes such content illegal in the UK.

For anyone from the UK I advise avoiding this website or being very selective about what you view. Even though no real people are depicted, the law treats them as real, and given most of Fakkus content is hardcore, that makes it class A, the worst kind. This has a starting sentence of 1 year in prison.

You have been warned. Unless this stupid law is ever changed anyone from the UK is running a serious risk by browsing Fakku.

You can always ask Jacob and CBLDF for help if it's really for Fakku's stuff but I really really doubt they chased random internet user because of this unless you were already on some watchlist for other more shady activities otherwise we would have whole lot of stories of this happening yet you're first.
Fakku also has controversial content filter for that reason from outside there's no "wrong" content, other than that they can't prove you that girls from schoolgirl tag are underaged since it all happens in high school and there are 18 y.o people.

I have must overslept that change when Fakku began to be hardcore because tags and magazines prove that it's vanila+oppai centric site which is as mild as it can be.


I also have hard time believing that someone who's charged for CP wasn't arrested on spot but I don't know UK laws in that regard.

The UK justice system has been cracking down hard on child sex offenders since the various scandals have happened. Unfortunately in the UK there is no distinction between a real child and a drawn one, no between a 17 and 7 year old.

You are free to believe what you want, but it is a fact that in the UK the amount of child sex offenders being prosecuted has increased 10 fold in recent years.

I in particular was caught through torrenting. I torrent the obvious films/movies, some porn (JAV only), and hentai, most originating from Fakku (can't stand censorship). I was asked what I have been torrenting and so on, then served a warrent and had my PC seized for an initial scan. The initial scan called "triage" took about 6 days and returned positive results (it is a very vague scan that searches for image hashes and known terms). Now I have to wait for 6-7 months for them to do a comprehensive scan to figure out what they found.
Naturally it is not the role of the police to determine my guilt, but once they see for example a girl in a school uniform that will be enough to take me to court. Provided I do not just plead guilty then I will have to prove to ajury that the girl in school clothes is actually of age.

Technically I am only under investigation, but to my knowledge there is nothing questionable on my computer except content from Fakku. I am simply warning people from the UK to proceed with caution (especially now that the snoopers charter is in effect).

PS. When I say hardcore I mean penetration. Things like violence are covered under a different law in the UK (but are still generally illegal).

Well they came to you because of pirating through unprotected network (probably that shit utorrent or bittorrent) and found something matching their scan which I assume unless they explicitly told you because of Fakku's hentai that it were movies because I really doubt that officials would have indexed content from niche site like Fakku when there are worse offenders out there and movies/music industry are going the most apeshit about pirating.

While Fakku could use "blah blah blah all characters are 18+" on some additional blank page they still have no way to prove you that these characters are underaged unless explictly stated in manga and artists are avoiding doing so.

I do not know exactly how they found me. It is possible they were monitering vague terms like "school" that is paired with sexual terms, of which content on Fakku could trigger.

Likewise, I do not know what specific content triggered this, but I do they maintain a database and will add to it any content they find illegal. Which means if they do find anything on my computer that is from Fakku and they consider it illegal, it will be added to this database.

As for age, a jury decides that. They also allow some degree of leeway and even something like a "1000 year old loli" can still be considered as depicting a child.

A word of advice, I would strongly strongly recommend getting a lawyer to represent you. It's also dangerous to talk about ongoing cases without legal advice. For example, your post clearly states that you had adult content with characters 16-18... such a statement could easily be entered into evidence against you.

A bit of disclosure, I live in Canada and in the past was charged with importing an onahole with a nude anime girl on it that customs thought was underage. Having been through that, I certainly do not envy your position. I don't know if you've been formally charged yet, but you need a lawyer, and you need to be very careful about what you say in a public forum or to law enforcement. It's important to point out that you are somewhat mistaken in your post; you don't have to prove anything, it's the government's job to prove that you broke the law. This is in your favor, don't give them anything they don't already have.

I think it would be a bit early to presume that the thing they're concerned about is the fakku content. While it could be, it could just as easily be that any of the JAV videos could have a minor, or have been flagged as such. While i think it's probably unlikely that they would specifically target anime and manga content, given the priorities, but unfortunately you won't know until you get the full evidence. If you faced questioning, if they didn't ask you questions about adult anime, it's probably not the main thing they were looking for. Once you fully find out what they have against you, you can start making moves and plan on how to defend yourself.

I think you're relatively safe if you're not actively saving anything to disk. Your connection to FAKKU is encrypted and unless your government has cracked contemporary encryption standards nobody should be able to see what you're viewing on this site unless they're looking over your shoulder. If they did actually crack encryption then privacy worldwide is dead and the rest of us are fucked too. The image files FAKKU serves to your PC when you are browsing digital manga are garbled as far as I can tell and so they're basically useless without the accompanying viewer. And on top of that, if you clear your cache regularly or exclusively browse FAKKU in incognito, it would be very difficult to recover anything. Using a VPN is always a good idea if you care about privacy in general and it would prevent anyone from knowing you're even accessing fakku.net.

From my understanding, in the UK first they will use "intelligence led" suspicion to track down a person. For example they find illegal content being shared on P2P and harvest IPs to investigate. Provided they find UK IPs they will track them to an address. From here they will get a warrant to seize anything they deem necessary such as PCs and phones.
Once they have this they run an initial scan on it. This scan is very basic and looks for hashes of known illegal files as well as does a dictionary search for various terms relevant to what they are searching for. If this returns a hit then they do a full scan of the entire computer to find any and all evidence that may be on the computer.

Right now I am at the point where they got a hit on the initial scan but have yet to scour the computer. I have yet to be arrested or even cautioned. The officer I spoke to even said I am free to go out and buy a new computer if I so desire, which I find strange.

Due to they way the initial scan works I suspect the hits they got were from the dictionary search. This scan searches many parts of a computer such as file names, internet history, registry, pagefile and even recently opened files in various programs. I obviously cannot say for sure what it is they got hits on but content from Fakku seems the most likely as it was the only one with actual names. The JAVs for example were named jibberish/some sort of serial number (like REDB233 or something).

I am not saying 100% for sure this is related to Fakku content but it is the most likely cause. As such I feel it is best people from the UK are warned, especially now that in the UK ISPs have to log every website a person views and police have easy access to these logs (which could very well be run through their search software).

That only works if you go to sites without SSL protection, no matter what page you have viewed as long as it have https they will only ever see that you went to https://www.fakku.net, https://www.wikipedia.org/, https://www.reddit.com/ etc. Exact address you went to will remain unknown unless they install spyware on your PC.

Just claim you're Muslim, that it's part of your culture and that Allah wills it.

In all seriousness though, I am not familiar with UK law. Got any links regarding this kind of art?

Funny you say this because the snoopers charter makes it legal for the police to hack your devices including installing viruses.

It's not because of Fakku that you would have gotten your computer taken (which is highly unlikely and sounds like you're full of shit.)

If you somehow aren't lying your ass off and this really did happen to you, then it's because you were looking at other shit on other sites.

The U.K. is full of people that want to ban porn altogether (a lot like Canada, these places have so many actual problems they need to make up new ones to look like they're doing something), of course there's morons that don't know the difference between lines on a page an reality, they don't even know how to stop their country from imploding.
In the US your pretty much covered under freedom of expression, along with Pornhub unbanning Lolis because even they said your an idiot if your trying to prosecute thought crimes, no human rights were violated, every reason there is even an age of consent doesn't apply to drawings, you'll be fine most likely, if not that's more because the U.K. need to do something while they let immigrants rape women
Edit: Nevermind this is most likely a troll, thanks for wasting my time kid, the only thing your gonna be first for is fail, next time you go an make a fool of yourself I expect you'll be saying how murder in GTA is murder in real life, btw if you go to the wiki for lolicon, go to legality, an underneath the US (with its big LEGAL letters an citations) you can go to the citations for the U.K., which pretty much destroys everything you've said
Go play pretend on another site, maybe come up with a story that doesn't bring up why your even coming back to the supposed bad site on your phone I guess since your "computer" was seized

What about Canadian laws regarding this? I just threw away 9 years worth of hentai dvds/manga (all legally purchased in Canada, with some coming from the US). None of what I threw away was really risqué, but from what I've read Canadian laws are fairly vague when it comes to a complete description of what is, and isn't acceptable as far as anime porn is concerned. That aside, I've just checked out of owning or storing anything anime related on my PC all together. Am I being too paranoid or is my caution somewhat justified?

Canada is infamous for its censorship (especially these days), an that applies to not only "hate speech", but also Hentai, not just loli/shota but vore beastility etc pretty much anything immoral, if you had DVD's you could hide them,no way they can see why you watch on a disc, to be on the safe side you shouldn't download a lot, you'll almost certainly be fine if you just go on websites (Fakku etc) but if you've say 800 loli pictures Canada is probably gonna look at the same as if you had 800 pictures of dead bodies. It's the price Canada pays for being taken over by SJW's who think porn is sexist altogether

You can go to the citations for Canada, really the only time it was a big issue was when some dumbass brought them to an airport, Canada knows they can't hold a case for thought crimes with no human rights involved however their law is vague enough like I said just go incognito (hiding history along with lock sites like Fakku an you'll be golden) but I would avoid downloading hundreds of pictures, of pretty much anything controversial
Canada is in such a spiral right now though yall got too many problems for them to care about lines on a page

Also chances are however with the way the liberal party like in the USA is going for an "accept all" crap an even got academics to say ACTUAL Cp was normal (not even kidding I recommend everyone looks it up for a mind break) it's going to be accepted, because like your linear judge said part of accepting muslims is accept there culture, an that goes for their child marriages, so I don't think eventually they're really going to care, I do however urge people to fight against this. Sure it'll make all hentai in Canada fine but it'll get so crazy animal fkers will be wanting to be accepted an it'll get worse from there

I haven't downloaded Hentai pics for years, and any I did have were deleted a long time ago. The only thing I did download was H-anime, but I no longer have any stored anywhere. I also got rid of utorrent, although I haven't used it in quite a while. Anyways, staying on topic, a friend of mine a few years back got in some shit for torrents, and had his internet service cut off. I think it was because of all the seeding he was doing, but no big legal action.

I wanted to ask you about "Lock Sites", since I can't seem to find a definition without google auto correcting to "Block Sites". I think I got an idea what it means, but I'd like your input just so i'm not missing any key details. Also what other sites are considered "Lock Sites"?

I can't post links to other websites on Fakku sorry but yea piracy is really the only thing getting seriously enforced these days

If you see a lock on the web browser address bar then you should also see that the website starts with HTTPS as opposed to HTTP in which case the page is using secure socket layer and is secure from a third party being able to see your information as it is being transmitted.
You can see above in the link the lock, this is mostly used so your ISP can't sell your data to advertisers to market to you but if your in Canada it's probably best to stick to those, like I said it's not even so much loli or shota they care about it used to be "immoral" things like incest etc, but Canada now is bending over backwards to accept everything an to be seen as "A welcoming place to all cultures an people" even if it means a degenerative society
As someone studying judicial law it's always interesting to observe gray areas

Absolutely, but your ISP most likely isn't gonna care about "fakku.net"

They barely care about pirate bay, in fact if you look at how many cases involved ISP's sharing domains for legality you would almost think it was illegal for them to do so, maybe this is due to it being like finding a needle in a haystack but still

I agree with the degeneracy thing. I believe there needs to be a line drawn in the sand at some point, especially when people are at risk of being hurt mentally and physically. My motto is always "whatever floats your boat" but only if it doesn't hurt anybody. The second someone is given rights to abuse actual people, that is where I draw the line. I don't know why my government can't see that.
