Gail Orenstein Will Not Be Silenced

Ever since Flickr was acquired by Yahoo! a while back, we've been holding our breath in anticipation of a flood of draconian account deletions and filtering headaches a la YouTube to keep the site squeaky-clean for the boobiephobic masses. So far, the situation hasn't been as completely dire as we would have thought; there's still a respectable amount of sexy content on the site if you know where to look. Still, every now and then the work of one member gets taken to task for a too-generous expanse of naked flesh—which seems to be the case with UK photojournalist Gail Orenstein, who found her entire photostream-cum-news portal unceremoniously axed by the Powers That Be this week without warning or explanation. Undettered, she went straight to her archives and opened up a brand new account, which we hope sticks around for a while this time—after all, naked boobs, like information, deserve to be free. (Though given that we're not exactly helping her stay under the radar by directing your attention to it here, maybe we shouldn't hold our breath about that happening either.)
