make community guidelines breaking projects unviewable instead of just unsharing them

TopCode

pretty self explanatory, users shouldnt be able to view community guidelines breaking projects.

pros: community guidelines content is harder to accidentally come by

cons: none afaik

The following is my signature:
MAKE PROJECTS REMOVED BY THE ST UNVIEWABLE PLEASE LIKE NOW
Once upon a time, CatBlocks were brought into the world of Scratch. They became quite dear to us, and were close to our hearts. But then, an evil kumquat ate them. We will always keep them in our hearts, and we promise to remember them forever.

How? There's currently no way to do this without wiping the project from the servers entirely. If they start restricting API access to certain projects then they would probably restrict API access to unshared projects altogether.

Yeah, but that's a separate suggestion.

In the latest Windows 11 update, Microsoft is going to give a new look to its classic Outlook email app and make it more user friendly and feature rich like Google Gmail email app.

they are not the same, you can view unshared projects, you wouldnt be able to view an unviewable one.

The thing is only you can see your unshared project, what would be the point of making it so that even YOU can't see your own project even when no one else has to see it.

Only you can see your unshared projects, the only way someone else can view your project is if they are logged into your account, but unless you are sharing an account with a friend, the only one who should be logged into your account is you.

They are making this suggestion because the Scratch Team simply unshares the projects, meaning that they are sill visible using programs such as turbowarp. The suggestion aims to not make them visible to anyone.
I ninja'd the OP?

So you will get a 403 if you request access? That should be easy to implement

You already can't… +just removing the ability to view it(even for the owner) would be problematic, as some people want to be able to see what was wrong with their project fix it(you can't fix an issue if you can't see it) and request for it to be put back up(via contact us).
