Last night I was exposed to CP and I am a victim of childhood sexual abuse so it really hit hard and made me instantly nauseous. I got a reply from the mods that my post was removed and the CSAM content was already gone by the time I made the report. It also said in the reply I got that If I made complaint I may be banned! WTH
That was not the case because it was sent out to more than one instance and was around for at least 3-4 hours on lemmy.world.
I am wondering if Lemmy could put in a tool that will shoot out to all available moderators 24x7, no matter what sub they are in so this crap can get taken down before some of our youngsters get exposed to something no one should ever see.
Like a “Bat signal” for CSAM. ???
When the source instance deletes the content, it should federate that delete to every instance that received it.
I think this happens properly when individual posts are deleted but not when a ‘purge’ is done of all a users’s posts. Not sure.
