Stuff not to do
If someone else might own the copyright to it, don't upload it. Don't upload gore, "hate speech" (i.e. demeaning race, gender, age, religious or sexual orientation, etc.), or material that is threatening, harassing, defamatory, or that encourages violence or crime. Don't upload illegal content such as child porn or nonconsensual ("revenge") porn. Don't hotlink to adult content or to file-sharing, gambling, torrent, warez, or Imgur rip-off sites. Don't impersonate someone else. Also, don't use Imgur to host image libraries you link to from elsewhere, content for your website, advertising, avatars, or anything else that turns us into your content delivery network. If you do – and we will be the judge – or if you do anything illegal, in addition to any other legal rights we may have, we will ban you along with the site you're hotlinking from, delete all your images, report you to the authorities if necessary, and prevent you from viewing any images hosted on Imgur.com. We mean it.
대부분 차단당한 사이트의 사례를 보면 명백히 개인 사용으로는 볼 수 없는 곳에 이용하기 위한 사용이거나 지나치게 한 곳에서 다수의 이미지를 사용해서 과도한 트래픽을 유발한 경우였죠. 그보다 영향력은 적으나 본 사이트가 아닌 외부에서 일어나는 '부정 업로드'도 역시 문제가 됩니다.
