I just saw two troll accounts posting child pornography on AskLemmy@Lemmy.world. The accounts are –
Content warning (obviously): Child pornography
Both accounts were made today to post just one post, and both are using images hosted on Mintboard.org.
I don’t think this is just an issue of having moderators react faster. I think there should be some limits on posting with one-day old accounts or for accounts trying to make their first post on this one.
Dude why are you sharing the link to it?!
If ever there was a time that being taught to share and also show proof goes too far, this is it.
I’m linking to the accounts that posted it so that people can follow up in the specifics: which instance hosts the accounts, and what site hosts the content.
Posts have been removed and user has been banned. Also submitted the Mintboard stuff to admins and myself/other mods have recommended for it to be added to the blacklist of banned sites.
Awesome, thanks.
I think this is the same troll that attacked Lemmy some times ago. Idk if it’s harassment campaign for the person in the picture or it’s purposely target lemmy. It’s a boon that the latest update allow instance to not cache the image so it’s easier to deal with these.
Hello,
I’m an admin for lemmy.world and I want to apologize for the way to slow reaction here. CP should be talen down on sight, and we failed to do that in time.
I will be discussing with the other admins on how to fix this in the future. Till then I can say nothing else then: sorry.
There is a demo application on Android (IAT) which can detect/flag any problematic looking photo. A tech like that (preferably foss) can be integrated to something and help overhelmed admins. Do not test it with problematic stuff Obviously it shouldn’t auto anything like Zuck does.
As far as I know we already use a filter, but I think this was faked/generated and thus wasn’t in it’s database.

To be fair to them, very few forums have 24 hour rapid response times. I don’t know what country the mods are in. I think the bigger lesson is that there need to be safeguards to make this harder.
First, if a post has a score of -10, it needs to disappear. There’s no reason for another fifty people to have to see disturbing content after 10 people already did.
Second, maybe place limits on accounts with no posts or comments or that were made today.

So I can make 10 accounts and have free reign to delete anyone’s post? No dice. There’s already systems in place to prevent this from happening, some things just slip through the cracks. (There’s a reason this is a rare occurrence)
-10 and it goes into a quarantine until a mod reviews it then.
That really isn’t any better. This is just asking for targeted harassment.
(Key point the only reason the post hasn’t been deleted yet is because there are no mods on to do so)
What if Lemmy clients had an option to not view negative X posts on the cummulative feed, you would have to directly navigate to the sub to view all content currently available including the negative X or lower posts?
Each client would have to implement this, but could be a way to “clean up” the primary feed. I hate when I see -20-something posts on subs im on because im fairly certain they’ve all deserved those scores.
Just a thought, what else could we implement to help this issue?
That use to be a feature is some reddit clients.
I’ve gotten -10 on some non-trolling posts ;).

What is CSAM mean?
Child Sexual Abuse Material
There’s @AutoMod@lemmy.world that AFAIK auto removes either based on number of downvotes or reports. I just have no idea how much that would be
Can I report these accounts without clicking on to their profiles?
I can’t find the report accounts button even when clicking on their profiles.
There must be a troll uprising because I’m dealing with the propaganda kind there.
Good thing you were able to make a CSAM post about you! You sure do hate the attention you get from those trolls, you totally hate having this account and your other past accounts connected by constantly whining and linking that account.
Define whining. And define CSAM.
What is the point of posting this publicly? Like any CP, you should clean your cache/history in the most secure way possible (e.g. foss bleachbit) and alert both admins and the FBI.
IT IS NOT A TROLL GUYS. IT IS A POS CRIMINAL .WE SHOULD PROBABLY PULL A 4CHAN AND DOXX IT.
EDIT : Oh look at little pedos here downvoating me for saying a cp spreader should get the consequences for its action. Call the wambulance perves.
Let law enforcement do their job and convict this criminal.

Can you remove that description? It’s abhorent to even imagine and it wasnt needed.
If what the OP said is true the troll was on lemme.ee. I honestly think this is the same guy. They’re also on the same instance.
They joined 39 minutes ago. I am willing to bet money that this is the same troll.
Criminal. Not troll. Posting that kinda thing is legitimately crossing a line.
It’s likely amakathrowaway is the troll, look at the account creation date.
Yeah that’s what I meant. Wasn’t that clear? Let me edit my comment
