MODERATORS
That finalized my decision to not self-host. I’m savvy enough to set it up but not enough to keep up with maliciousness like this. I’d never even considered a deliberate CSAM attack as a possibility - I thought it was just something (atrocious) users might inadvertently post.
You always gotta prepare for the worst case. It's certainly why I am never going to bother with hosting something like this unless I'm serious about it akin to a job. If there's even a remote chance of CASM getting on your machine, you gotta assume it will and be prepared to fight to prevent it/remove it.
