    CSAM? What is CSAM? Is it a rewrite of “scam”?

    Googles…

    Oh no. Oh no no no. Why are people so fucking shit?

    Is there a way AskLemmy and other major communities could prevent new users from making posts in the future?

    Like an account has to be over a month old to post for example. Maybe that could help prevent these kinds of disgusting attacks

    I don’t know if Lemmy has a moderator tool available that could do something like that though.

      I don’t quite like that idea. It’s something I really hated on Reddit. It just discourages new people from joining. Besides, you could self host an instance with accounts claiming to be made in 1970.
