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. ???
Posted this in another thread that was apparently taken down, so trying again:
What is the complete correct response for users to carry out if they spot CP?
Is just the report button on the post good enough? Is there some kind of higher level report for bigger-than-just-one-instance shit that threatens Lemmy as a whole? Should we call the FBI or some shit?
I haven’t come across any here, but if I do, I’d like to be able to aid in swift action against not only the post/account in question, but against the actual person running it.
