As of right now, i temporarily removed the community from federating with our instance because of CSAM, which was and still is posted on this community. As soon as the issue is resolved, we federate again.
Sorry for any inconvenience, but this is for better for us all.
Edit: The purge command seemed to lock up the db and the instance was unresponsive for some time. I hope we god rid of the content for now. There might be some other actions taken. I hope you understand.
Sorry for any interruptions caused.
Edit 2: All files which were uploaded to the feddit.ch instance from 27.08. until now were deleted. Sorry if i disrupted any of your posts or comments. We really don’t want any CSAM content on this instance an hope we got away with some cached content.
As much as I hate capitalism, I would prefer to keep my job at this moment in time so thanks.
To my boss: No, I never scroll Lemmy while at work the above was a joke.
Ha, I already had blocked that community anway.
Apparently, the admin closed the community: https://lemmy.world/post/4018526 .
What was CSAM again?
Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM)
Right, thanks.
So there are people who even use public channels to share that?
It seems like yes. For this particular case, it also seems like they wanted to bring down the community - which they achieved. The whole discussion raises the problem of such content being federated to other instances, which is really problematic.
