[–] toasteecup@lemmy.world 15 points 2 years ago (2 children) nobody's safety is in jeopardy You know, except for those abuse victims whose pictures are being spread around lemmy. Just sayin' permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] EhForumUser@lemmy.ca 0 points 2 years ago* The theory behind why CSAM is illegal is that if someone is willing to pay for CSAM it incentivizes production of even more CSAM content to receive more payment. That incentivized additional production means even more abuse. A perfectly reasonable take and something that I think can be demonstrated. But why would you accidentally seeing CSAM prompt you to give payment to create that incentivization? Are you worried that you're a closeted pedophile that will be ready to shower those who record such content to see more and more as soon as you get your first taste? permalink fedilink source parent [–] Rodeo@lemmy.ca -5 points 2 years ago I thought it was pretty apparent we were talking about Lemmy, but okay. The statements were about the Lemmy devs can and/or should be doing for safety. They simply do not have the power to stop child abuse by developing a social media platform. So then the safety in question must be the safety of people using Lemmy, because the Lemmy devs have some direct power over that. I'm sure you feel very morally aloof with your righteous retort, though. permalink fedilink source parent
