minus-squareKairoslinkfedilink2•edit-25 months agoYes that’s literally what I said… Sites beholden to these laws… PornHub, sister sites, etc… …are much less likely to be hosting CSAM. Because of their moderation. Obviously it’s a big site and you can’t get rid of it all, but the percentage is absolutely lower.

No it’s not.
