The same thing happened with live journal. Executives massively over-react to the terror of possibly hosting child pornography, and therefore decided all pornography - or even anything mildly erotic - had to be ejected. And, like what happened with live journal, the site never recovered.

As a sex positive liberal, I admit a certain level of schadenfreude at seeing tumblr's decision bite them in the butt. Using child porn as a pretext to justify a puritanical purge of all erotic content is absolutely obnoxious IMO.
