hi! A friend of mine who's very internet minded sent me a link to 4chan for a funny picture. Now i have heard that that sight contains child porn/ other illegal stuff. Is this true? Because i don't want a sight like that on my history as in the future i'll be applying for jobs that require security checks (including internet/phone activity. I will have to give them permission to do so.) So yeah is 4chan a safe sight? Or is it not?

Really, really not safe in that sense.

Sure just clear your history.

i don't care, check it out, if they ask you about it, tell them it was sent in a chen letter, and you didn't know, keep the chain mail letter to prove your story.

IT'S FUCKING 4CHAN

And I highly doubt the company you work at is going to bother finding out what sites you visit unless you're doing it during work hours.

For safety reasons I'd just clear the history. There have been cases of users on 4chan posting things like that, but they have been banned because the posting or distribution of anything like child porn is illegal. Most of the boards on 4chan really aren't that bad, and maybe chances are the person who will screen your computer has never heard of 4chan, but a clearing of your history won't hurt either way.

4chan is adamant in it's stance against child pornography.  For all intents and purposes it's safe.

4chan isn't..... safe as such. But its very unlikely you'll find child porn on it - they have a strong stance against it.
