Not a good look for Mastodon - what can be done to automate the removal of CSAM?

I know that people like to dump on Cloudflare, but it's incredibly easy to enable a built-in CSAM scanner with CloudFlare.

On that note, I'd like to see built-in moderation tools using something like PDQ and TMK+PDQF and a shared hashtable of CSAM and other material that may be outlawed or desirable to filter out in different regions (e.g. terrorist content, Nazi content in Germany, etc.)

Wait, why do people like to dump on CloudFlare? I must be out of the loop.

Lemmy.world had to start using CloudFlare because some script kiddies were DDOSing it. Some people were complaining that it encourages centralization, etc.

Personally, I love it. The service you get even at the lowest level of payment ($20/mo) is great. And what you get for free can't be compared.
