im_john_hereCan we please defederate from whatever is hosting /c/cunny?
It’s sad that lemmy users are constantly wanting to defederate smth for one reason or another BEFORE reaching a critical mass of active users
Oh yeah because propagating child porn is alarmist and we should totally wait for it to garner more support for shutting it down.
I’m not searching for CP, so I don’t care, yet a quarter of all posts being about banning some community is worrying
I agree actually. Everything is already super fragmented ultimately defeating the purpose of federation. Defederating doesn’t remove that content either, it just makes it harder to access.
it just makes it harder to access.
Not only. For CP and other possible legally risky content, Federation means violating data may be shared between instances.
Also, this is stated like it’s a negative? Are you saying this because it should be easy to access child porn?
WTF?
Wtf? Federation is a privilege, not a right. If you can’t behave, spread CP or is a hub for nazi shit, you definitely don’t deserve that privilege.
Sure, but doesn’t banning an instance because of a single “bad” community hurt the whole platform?
No. An instance that permits and hosts child porn is an inherent risk to federate with. What instance owner could want to federate with them and possibly receive / store CSAM/child porn?
Also: what instance owner wants to potentially expose their users to that type of content??? It’s globally illegal.
