I am going to be disabling image uploads and image serving, moving to moderated signups, and instituting some extensive block lists on infosec.pub due to the pervasive problems with CSAM attacks on lemmy instances.

No, it’s not happened to any of our instances yet, but I don’t need that headache. And if anyone does, I promise you that I will make it my life’s mission to see that those responsible are convicted and rotting in prison where they belong. ❤️

Edit: h/t to @infosec_jcp for pointing out the problem to me.

    now if only there was a universal definition and cut off point for CSAM world wide… but sadly the only valid option is indeed to disable images…

    Lets hope https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3920 gets a proper implementation or other fix so we can atleast vet before we allow an images.
