Let's also not ignore the fact that these communities literally prohibit Links or content from being posted to them. So even if people make the Federation argument about cross-hosting it's all moot in the end because the community doesn't allow it in the first place.

Here is a link to the rules of the Piracy community you will notice if you have any form of reading comprehension (or if you actually read it and aren't just trolling, like many people here) that rule 3 specifically prohibits linking to or hosting files, which many people making the federated hosting argument seem to leave out of the equation, likely because it destroys their argument altogether since their argument is about illegal content being hosted, but no illegal content is hosted in the first place (and any that is usually is removed by the mods for breaking the rules, just like it is here on Lemmy.world).

Seems to be a lot of people making assumptions in the comments here ☹️

People all over this thread trying to say they linked to content clearly haven't been there, they absolutely do not link to content directly and it's even against their rules, so if you make an argument about "lemmy.world can't host illegal content" or "links are illegal content" these are Moot points because they neither host content on that server, nor directly link to it.

Aww you didn't seem to like what I said did you, darling. I'm not planning on not saying things just because it bothers you, Stay mad, trolls 😎 🏳️‍⚧️

All the people here comparing CSAM and Piracy clearly don't understand how severe CSAM is compared to piracy, that or they're making an obvious strawman to attempt to derail the conversation because they can't actually make any good arguments.

Here's the short version because I've already explained the difference:

CSAM is sexual material depicting children, it is one of the most disgusting and heinous crimes there are.

Piracy is Copyright infringement and is typically a civil matter, in some cases it may turn criminal but is not and cannot be compared to CSAM material in terms of severity, and attempting to do so is dishonest and disgusting (it shows you lack understanding of the severity of CSAM as a crime).

Also FYI I said it earlier in another thread but dbzer0 doesn't allow links or content to be hosted there which renders the whole content federation argument dead in the water since there is no links to pirated material or hosted pirated material that would get copied over here though activitypub Read their rules or shut up, any continued arguments about the content federation problem are either based on lies or hypothetical scenarios that aren't happening and thus aren't relevant.

This is a bit off-topic but why do you have a bot account flag when you seem to be commenting as a normal user?

I'm pretty sure bot accounts are always displayed, they use the bot flag to block the bots from communities that mods otherwise might not want them in.

They probably won't if it's individual people, though they are donation funded so if they show their supporters that they don't care those supporters might stop financially supporting lemmy.world. So telling them they should just leave because you don't care or handing out petty bans like "let me help you" isn't going to inspire these people to continue contributing donations.

This website doesn't make a profit, but that's all the more reason there should be an effort to not make people hate them, because I don't know anyone who would enthusiastically donate to support people or an organization they hate.
