you need a conspiracy? here's one. it honestly wouldn't surprise me if nostr's most blocked user, the same user that has complained about Primal for years, the same user that spammed nostr with gay porn for months, the same user that is complaining about CSAM on Primal without receipts, would also be the same one that is uploading the alleged illegal content to Primal's blossom.

Completely agree, pretty sure it's them. Coincidence they always manage to find untagged, no hashtags, no text notes only moments before primal bans it? They're either actively searching for it or uploading their personal collections
Derek if someone posts it directly its bad. Just follow instructions and please delete CSAM if its on your companies relay.

One would pretty fast get the impression that blocking of content and users are pretty random and used heavy handed on content that is neither spam nor illegal, when using Primal. So, maybe all these resources should just be direct a bit more against the above categories and less towards narrative or opinions. We wouldn't prepare lawmakers in the EU or US with a good excuse to ban Nostr at some point, would we? image
As for who benefits from our work? Apart from the users who will see less csam, the clients that don't host csam and actively block the csam being hosted by other clients.
having been connected for a time, and completely having my technical grasp of the subject ignored by said developers, i could have also warned everyone that web of trust doesn't stop spam and can be gamed to promote anything if you play with it long enough. i'm not surprised that this is blowing back on people in such a scandalous way but hey, you all thought it was some kind of panacaea for spam. it's not. and it makes new users who aren't trying to game it, up against a brick wall of invisibility. and those determined to exploit it have all the wedges required to wheedle their glowing and sicko way into the graph. but nobody ever listens to me and unlike the well meaning whistleblowers here, i don't even bother to make popcorn, this just pops up on my radar when it touches my actual follow list. nobody's going to listen to me anyway, so have fun with those wots
I personally reported the csam yesterday and some of those media files have been on primals servers for years so please stop gaslighting.
That clown is a bad troll. If he cared about CSAM on Nostr he'd actually report it like I asked him to. But clicking button or sending a report is too hard to do. Which begs the question, why won't they report it. Kind of odd behavior.
Yes we could do that programmatically. What's the npub? I've neen asking all day for npubs, but trolls don't give npubs. They just complain and say why aren't you doing anything with zero information. To be honest we need better trolling. I blame Nostr's openness. People with the lowest IQ can use it.
No because I remember this already happening before. You all blamed fuckstr for no reason saying it was his retaliation for primal hiding him. It's not him.
You think that verita spent 3+ years building up a csam distribution network on nostr just to expose himself? That's a joke right?
Is there a reason this is a screenshot instead of quoting the note for people to read themselves? Can we get some damn context. What happened?
I think bushrat misunderstood your accusations that he and verita are the same person because last time you all ganged up on fuckstr for exposing a pervert that was trying to solicit sex with children in Thailand. It does seem like a pattern, every time someone gets exposed on nostr as a pedophile everyone jumps in. Whole thing becomes a popularity contest and people debate who's opinions are more important instead of removing the csam or cutting ties with the person that got exposed. You can't cover it up by attacking the people exposing it.
I maintain 50+ active npubs. Each one has a carefully crafted unique identity. Each one has thousands of notes and hundreds of media files. I do this manually, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. I haven't slept for 3 years. I did it all to make Derek look bad.
When it gets reported nothing gets done. When we complain that nothing got done we get reported and muted.
View quoted note → Interesting. Using this link I was able to find a post that doesn't even mention the word "preteen" and still there was a lolicon picture. How does it work? Just in case if there anyone could be confused in the thread already: as far as I understood, lolicon/shotacon is considered as exactly the same category as real video recorded child porn, from around ~2019, in some/many countries (correct me if I got it wrong, I'm not a lawyer). Quite ironically, I learned that accidentally due to this guy just very recently: I'm so out of time, not seeing a lot of things from the pre/post-COVID period. That's a perfect example for this meme; those who possibly mindlessly store some humorous drawn material that could be interpreted as cp—beware that some corrupt police officer may use it against you: image To be clear, I don't support sexual behavior and especially violence towards people of pre-consent age. I don't have any opinion about Derek either; I'm completely out of context of this drama.
I don't have any opinion on Lunduke's stuff either, just in case (besides his Rust critique, which is not part of this video) 🤷‍♂️
