Policy/Guidelines

Introduction

The Kolyma Network serves many people, and it has many purposes. In general, KolymaNET believes in freedom of speech, and we try to avoid censorship where possible. With this in mind, we have created a policy that protects the safety of the users of KolymaNET, whilst ensuring that their privilege of speaking freely is not trampled.

However, there are still restrictions on what can be said and done on KolymaNET, and to avoid repercussion, it is important that you read and understand these rules.
