Hey all, after finding out that they were a loli friendly community I went ahead and blocked this instance. Didn't want to wait to go for a vote on this for obvious reasons shared by many of you. Thank you for your support

Sadly I don't think they are the only one. But it's good that we now know where we stand with these instances and they can be defederate as the show up. Thank you for your hard work @[email protected]
Please do not post any 'example' images from this instance.
aye child porn content seems like an emergency
Id argue the admins are compelled by law to act on this without any agora process at all.
Aye
Drawn child porn is not something I want on my timeline. I've blocked multiple communities, but they keep getting made. Especially since jerboa doesn't blur NSFW yet this has been exhausting.
There was a fucking graph one made showing what was allowed on their community. It started at 19 ended at 1. The 'not allowed' section was at the extremes, both too old (late teens) and too young (babies).
Fucking disgusting pedophile shit.
Aye
I believe defederation should be reserved for severe issues, and I absolutely believe this qualifies.
Aye.
This is a Canadian instance and depictions of children (real or drawn) for sexual purposes is illegal in Canada.
I don't know what it is, but if it really allows what the exploding head thread says, I say defederate it.
Aye.
That stuff is illegal in many countries.
Aye.
I think this post should be a [Discussion] post first, before it goes to the [Vote] stage.
I don't think there needs to be much discussion here. Drawn child porn is a fairly well understood concept.
Drawn child porn is a fairly well understood concept.
You're not wrong. This is one case where I'd agree that they should be defederated.
And it's been done: https://sh.itjust.works/comment/401417 TheDude just defederated them.
I'm just hoping that we can get some ground rules in place for how we post to The Agora. Jumping straight to a vote should be left for extreme cases (and, this could be considered one.)
Let's make The Agora a place of thoughtful discussion, where people feel like they can speak their mind without being attacked for it, where people can respond to others without being attacked for it, and where courtesy and respect are freely given.

I'm not a fan of de-federation by any means, but instances that allow abusive content is a red line for me.
Brb, hiding behind some VPNs to investigate.
e: ew. Loli images, admins approved/created the communities. (If you don't know what loli is and don't want to risk an FBI raid, wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lolicon)
Aye
'Loli' content allowed and encouraged by admins.
There are some fairly explicit images in the headers of some of their NSFW subs.
It seems they're trying to be some sort of image repository for NSFW images on topics that would be problematic.
I can't see this as an issue that could be resolved by talking to the admins (as they're the ones creating the communities).
I'm for de-federation. Loli content is content glorifying child sexual abuse and crosses the red line.
rip those 14 subscribers
Aye

Nay. Not that I expect my vote to matter; this seemed like an inevitability for a Canadian node. I mostly joined just to see how things shake out in the end.
So as an unsavory tourist, so long and thanks for all the fish. I hope there will continue to be neutral intermediaries where I could still hypothetically come and say hello, since I'd like to think I'm reasonably amiable under most circumstances. But if not, that's okay too. 👋
They explicitly support child pedophilia, ive seen the posts
