This one is a very basic CSAM scanner that goes through lemmy image storage and just deletes stuff it deems bad. https://github.com/db0/fedi-safety I havent tried it tho, so i cant attest to its quality.

Im sure there are tools made for mastodon too, since it has a lot more users.

We arent really in disagreement tho. I am absolutely empathetic with their situation and their burnout. Im just saying they should have seen it coming. Those two things arent contradictory. I just find it odd how one can invest so much time into a public project, without being aware of the realities of having to moderate it. Im thankful for the people that host instances, but i will never do it, because i know how much of a pain it is.

This really is a complicated problem, but if the fediverse wants to grow without relying on slave labor for moderation like Meta and the rest, then we have to find ways to lighten the load on moderators. Thats why creating transparent pre moderation tools like the image scanners used by many fediverse instances is so important.

When you moderate a platform that the public is free to upload anything to, you will see everything. From insults to threats to gore to CSAM. Thats how the internet is. That is the worst part in my opinion, because you cant just look away, but actually have to deal with it.

Sounds like someone wasn’t prepared for the reality of human interaction on the internet.
I mean its completely fair to say that they don’t want to deal with it, but also what did they expect?

Classic UK. Always trying to one up even the US in its dystopian fascism slide.

Yeah the transparency of it might be unintended.

I think there is a good chance this behavior is unintended!

Lmao, sure…

Yeah uuuhh thats the idea. We want the lives of these people to be destroyed.

Germany on the other hand is still pushing to implement something similar :) Gotta take the small wins wherever they come from.

That is a funny coincidence then

Thats the level of explaining USAmericans needed for this. Unless you directly show it to them in 1:1 the exact same way that they would experience it, they will not believe you. Even if you do, they will still call the film fake and CGI and whatever they like today.

Inject = Shove through a small needle :D

You could make it a “mode” of sorts. Like a map overlay that will temporarily cover everything you havent been to.

I luckily only really use Calc. Ive had no problems with that, but my use cases are fairly primitive probably. What kind of issues did you have while using it and which one Writer/Calc/Draw?

How much yall wanna bet that this was done by utilizing a security flaw in their anti cheat system?

Yeah, this seems like an easy lawsuit in the EU tbh

It basically boils down to making the browser do some cpu heavy calculations before allowing access. This is no problem for a single user, but for a bot farm this would increase the amount of compute power they need 100x or more.

The down votes are from people who work in IT support that have to deal with idiots that play with things they dont understand.

And they are probably aware of that. The suffering is the point.
