Not a good idea. It's illegal to incite religious/racial/sexual hatred, cartoon lolita/shotacon is illegal, and the British police are retarded fucks that will come down hard on you over nothing so long as it's politically correct to do so. I suggest the USA (see: the 1st Amendment), Holland or Sweden. Of course you can go with Russia, China or some other weird country if you want to really go under the radar (but your domain name will need to be equally as secure, so register it with PRQ using their privacy service or some other "free speech"/pro-privacy registrar like NFSN).

Don't host anything in Britain. Ever. For any reason.
Go for Sweden if you're hosting a chan.

OTK has been hosted in Canada for like a year and had no problems. No poop is allowed but Idgaf about that.
Probably Sweeden or the Netherlands if you really want a "free speech" channel site. Especially if you are going to have stuff on your *chan that will piss off the murkan government. Though, ever since the Julian Assange thing I've been wary of Sweeden.
BUT if your trying to host a child porn chan then host it in murka so the van can come and shoot you.

You reside in the US, no? Do obscenities not apply to you? Besides, nearly all of the developed nations have obscenity laws, so that can't be helped.

This website, and 4chan, are both hosted in the United States. The only thing 4chan has to be careful about is raids and CP. I'd put U.S. right below Sweden.

Only if you're out on a public street or something. Obscenity laws don't apply on the internet here for the most part. Look at 4chan.

The thing about 4chan is that questionable materials, like lolicon, CP, and furry erotica, is reserved for the /b/ board, where threads last for an hour at most (sans stickies).
@124,556 (Broseph !!fxnDb+Ve4)
Obscenity laws apply to all forms of pornography and imagery. Here in the US, while one may be put in prison for possession of lolicon, one can display child nudity, so long as it is somehow proven to be art, as to imply that child nudity is somehow a better art form and less harmful than DRAWN child nudity.

Seems like a case of copyright infringement crackdown. Far worse has happened here in the states. Besides, the internet laws still seem a bit more lax than the US law.

You cannot go to prison for "lolicon" in the U.S., and everything on /b/ is legal except for CP and raid threads, and despite the fact that everything on /b/ rarely lasts more than an hour, they still delete it right away because it is illegal. Furry porn, gore, and all the other shit on /b/ is legal. If it were illegal, it would get deleted like the CP and raid threads. They don't limit they stuff to /b/ because it's illegal and they want to get rid of it faster. They limit it to /b/, even though it is legal, because that's how moot chooses to run his chan.
U.S. obscenity laws apply mainly to just what you say/display in public. You can't scream curse words in public, expose porn to people in public, or run around naked in public, but you can say whatever the fuck you want online, watch whatever porn you want online and it's perfectly legal, and post pictures of yourself naked online. It's all perfectly legal, and does not fall under obscenity laws, unless it's strictly illegal content like CP.

None of those are obscene under US law, just indecent. The setting of obscene speech is irrelevant (and some of the stuff on 4chan would definitely qualify).
