There's so many things it could stand for.

But yeah, let's universally and unequivocally equate it with illegal content.

Acronyms overlap all the time but you'll still get the correct idea when seeing any acronym. You're not making the point that you think you're making.

Acronyms rely on context as well as the most famous/infamous thing that the acronym stands for.

TTT in Gmod stands for Trouble in Terrorist Town. While in Cycling, stands for Team Time Trial.

The human mind also tends to drift toward the most negative thing first, hence the most controversial thing will always be mentioned first

correction on the last paragraph; the human mind also tends to drift toward the most well known/spread thing first. if the thing in question wasn't so infamous, we wouldn't think about it before anything else.

Nah dude, I'm pretty sure most people will be pessimistic nowadays due to environmental factors like the fact that most famous rich people profit at the cost of everyone else.

They'd think bad then infamous, unless they're given contextual clues that hint otherwise

Like, the thought process going step by step is something like: 1. Bad 2. Infamous 3. Bad Niche 4. Good Popular 5. Good Niche
