Even if it’s just a recommendation on a different group in which to ask the question, I’m curious how Lemmy combats criminal activity and content like human trafficking, smuggling, terrorism, etc?
Is it just a matter of each node bans users when they identify a crime, and/or problematic nodes are defederated if they tolerate it?
And if defederated, does that mean each node has to individually choose to defederate from the one allowing criminal activity?
There are services that help instance admins to coordinate with one another on blocking instances that allow e.g. CSAM or hate content.
See e.g. https://gui.fediseer.com/

lemm.ee resorted to disabling image uploading altogether
Nowadays it’s allowed only for users with >4 week old accounts. It’s not perfect, but having this barrier to entry will hopefully prevent at least some problems.
Thank you for this. It helps me with further inquiry—I wasn’t sure what to search. Again, thank you!
