Even if it’s just a recommendation on a different group in which to ask the question, I’m curious how Lemmy combats criminal activity and content like human trafficking, smuggling, terrorism, etc?

Is it just a matter of each node bans users when they identify a crime, and/or problematic nodes are defederated if they tolerate it?

And if defederated, does that mean each node has to individually choose to defederate from the one allowing criminal activity?

      Nowadays it’s allowed only for users with >4 week old accounts. It’s not perfect, but having this barrier to entry will hopefully prevent at least some problems.
