Not a good look for Mastodon - what can be done to automate the removal of CSAM?

If you run your instance behind cloudlare, you can enable the CSAM scanning tool which can automatically block and report known CSAMs to authorities if they're uploaded into your server. This should reduce your risk as the instance operator.

Sweet - thanks - that's a brilliant tool. Bookmarked.

@Arotrios @corb3t @redcalcium perhaps we should learn to not stand behind cloudflare at all! their proxy:
- is filtering real people,
- is blocking randomly some requests between activity pub servers ❌

the best way to deal with non solicited content is human moderation, little instance, few people, human scale... #smallWeb made of lots of little instances without any need of a big centralized proxy... 🧠

I trust CloudFlare a helluva lot more than I trust most of these companies discussed on this thread. Their transparency is second to none.
