Several times a week, we are asked if we ban people we
disagree with. The answer has always been no. There are a variety of activities
and products that are not allowed on Gumroad, but disagreement with our team,
company, or CEO is not one of them.
This tweet meant to clarify our answer to this specific
question, but because of our unfamiliarity with the context of ‘deplatforming’
and how it is used, we caused only more confusion and stress for our creators.
We’re sorry for that. How to form an LLC in Ohio
This blog post serves to dispel the vagueness of our tweet
and clarify our positions.
First off, we want Gumroad to be a platform for various
sorts of creative expression. However, that does not mean we tolerate all types
of content. We never have, and never will tolerate: targeted harassment,
abusive or threatening speech, or other prejudicial material.
If you share, promote, or sell these ideas on Gumroad, it is
a violation of our Terms of Service and will result in a suspension:
(iv) promotes or encourages discrimination based upon race,
sex, religion, nationality, disability, sexual orientation or age;
(vi) or is abusive towards other people;

Another type of content people often complain about is
sexual content. To be clear: sexual content is allowed on Gumroad (including
illustrations, comics and erotic prose), though NSFW products should be tagged
as such.
