Many images from the past 24 hours are now broken, and they will stay that way. (literature.cafe)

I won't go into full detail since it's a lemmy admin thing but someone in a community on another instance posted genuine CSAM today and it got federated across different instances. It was originally just one, but I was informed it was multiple.

This is an ongoing issue that is a topic of major discussion amongst lemmy admins. Please be advised that there is info regarding this that cannot be publicly shared at this time, but know that it is being handled carefully in a coordinated manner.

I'm sorry if I take a step back from posting for the next few days.

Newly federated posts should work as intended.

I do sincerely wish you the best of luck, may your banhammers, defederations and purges strike true and eliminate this repulsive content. It is not a job that anyone should envy; and I think I speak for everyone when I say that we all do appreciate the hard work that instance admins must sometimes do.

Disgusting. Hope the poster can be tracked and locked up.

Thank you for that update. Seems like a perfectly good reason to break some images.

It probably won't even be noticeable in a day or two tbh

What's CSAM?

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Child sexual abuse material. So... CP. Yeah.

seriously why though? what do they have to gain by posting this? followers?

Because people want lemmy as a project dead, and they are doing so by trying to burn out the admins and instance owners as much as they can. People are fucked up and petty.
