If you host an instance and allow people to sign up and post, what is preventing bad actors from filling your storage with cp and other illegal shit?

Are you just signed up for permanent content moderation assisted by some tooling?

That liability sounds absolutely terrifying to me…

    Well, insufficient moderation tools do seem to be a big concern around here.

    My bigger worry is the modlog.

      Isn’t this still just data in a database that can be deleted? Perhaps not very transparent of the instance owner, but I’d rather sacrifice complete transparency for compliance with the law
