A user on our instance reported a post on lemmynsfw as CSAM. Upon seeing the post, I looked at the community it was part of, and immediately purged all traces of that community from our instance.

I approached the admins of lemmynsfw and they assured me that the models with content in the community were all verified as being over 18. The fact that the community is explicitly focused on making the models appear as if they're not 18 was fine with them. The fact that both myself and one a member of this instance assumed it was CSAM, was fine with them. I was in fact told that I was body shaming.

I'm sorry for the lack of warning, but a community skirting the line trying to look like CSAM isn't a line I'm willing to walk. I have defederated lemmynsfw and won't be reinstating it whilst that community is active.

I appreciate that you waited until you found content that justified defederation. What you're describing doesn't seem that surprising to me based on what I saw.

Also, I'm usually never an early adopter, so it's cool to watch these decisions play out in real time.

Just wanted to say thank you for this, mostly because I am tired of blocking individual communities from there every time I browse all to not see porn.

So I'm not entirely sure if this is a coincidence, but I recently reported a post in the community of question, thinking it might be CSAM. Maybe my intentions might be of interest: The post looked as if it was portraying and sexualizing a person under age and that made me uncomfortable. Especially as in my opinion (and understanding) the community in question was not focussed on people looking like children. In my opinion, if a community exists that has that focus, it's gross, but I'm not sure yet what the consequences should be (I'm torn between not wanting to kink-shame and so on and not wanting to promote CSAM(ish) content). As I didn't perceive the community in question as promoting CSAM-like content though, I would have just expected that the specific post be removed and that's it. I'm not entirely sure what to think about the whole instance being defederated now. Also, it's kind of surprising for me that the report went to blåhaj admins and not lemmynsfw ones, but I guess that's ok. Maybe it should automaticly go to both?

Anyway, it's nice to see that reports are taken seriously (thank you!) and I'm sorry to sea that you're now receiving hate for it.
