There have been users spamming CSAM content in !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world causing it to federate to other instances. If your instance is subscribed to this community, you should take action to rectify it immediately. I recommend performing a hard delete via command line on the server.

I deleted every image from the past 24 hours personally, using the following command: sudo find /srv/lemmy/example.com/volumes/pictrs/files -type f -ctime -1 -exec shred {} \;

Note: Your local jurisdiction may impose a duty to report or other obligations. Check with these, but always prioritize ensuring that the content does not continue to be served.

Update

Apparently the Lemmy Shitpost community is shut down as of now.

I’ve been listing to the audiobook for American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer and the number of times they say “CP” as an abbreviation for “Communist Party” is too damn high.

Also last time I went to the amusement park Cedar Point they’ve got “CP” as an abbreviation on all sorts of stuff.

Made me chuckle, but I do think it’s perhaps time to move to the abbreviation CSAM since it’s less likely to get used for other purposes.

Youtube literally flat banned any channel with CP in it. Regardless of what CP actually stood for, like say combat power in pokemon go..... Lots of bigger YouTubers got hit with account closures for like a week before it got reversed.
