If you host an instance and allow people to sign up and post, what is preventing bad actors from filling your storage with cp and other illegal shit?

Are you just signed up for permanent content moderation assisted by some tooling?

That liability sounds absolutely terrifying to me…

    @corytheboyd This is literally what section 230 is about. did everyone suddenly forget that drama? social media platform hosts are not legally liable for user-posted content, provided they follow takedown requests of illegal content when it’s brought to their attention.
