Are there any other restrictions on what I can say or do here?

We chose a host for this site that had what we thought was a "least restrictive" Terms of Service (TOS) and Acceptable Use Policy (AUP). But, as Adam of SunburntKamal says, "on the Internet there is no sidewalk." That means that there isn't any truly and purely public space on the Internet because access to it is always mediated by some company. You should read your ISP's TOS and AUP documents to see what they prohibit and allow. Below is the most important part of Dreamhost's TOS/AUP:

The rules here are mostly common-sense but common sense isn't always so common, so we thought we should spell them out.

 

Privacy

We will not sell, rent, or otherwise share your account information with anyone. Period.

Etiquette

We welcome dissent and passionate debate and so we need to create the kind of environment where that can occur safely. That means no personal attacks. "I think that's a ridiculous idea because ..." is much more effective than "You'd have to be a real idiot to think that ..."

Images

It's hard to talk about sex without talking about sexual images, and it's hard to talk about sexual images without sometimes using them as illustrations. This is primarily an information and discussion site, not primarily an entertainment site, but either way there will be times when explicit imagery may be appropriate. Our policy is that graphic sexual images be kept off the front page of the site.
