I just developed and published a script to clear your pict-rs object storage from potential CSAM.

GitHub - Haidra-Org/lemmy-safety: A script that goes through a lemmy pict-rs object storage and tries to prevent illegal or unethical content
github.com

I noticed a bit of panic around here lately and as I have had to continuously fight against pedos for the past year, I have developed tools to help me detect and prevent this content.

As luck would have it, we recently published one of our anti-csam checker tool as a python library that anyone can use. So I thought I could use this to help lemmy admins feel a bit more safe.

The tool can either go through all your images via your object storage and delete all CSAM, or it canrun continuously and scan and delete all new images as well. Suggested option is to run it using --all once, and then run it as a daemon and leave it running.

Better options would be to be able to retrieve exact images uploaded via lemmy/pict-rs api but we're not there quite yet.

Let me know if you have any issue or improvements.

EDIT: Just to clarify, you should run this on your desktop PC with a GPU, not on your lemmy server!

Can this be used with the Lemmy-easy-deploy method?

This shouldn't run on your lemmy server (unless your lemmy server has a gpu)

I can put one in..

I don't know your setup, but unless it's a very cheap GPU, it would be a bit of a waste to use it only for this purpose. But up to you
