There's a lot of really really dark shit on telegram that's for sure, and it's not like signal where they are just a provider. They do have control the content
I don't recall CP/gore being readily available on those platforms, it gets reported/removed pretty quickly.
Riiight
Edit: Is telegram really an encrypted messaging app (spoiler: no) get off your high horse defending exiled russian oligarchs in the name of encryption.
In your head in confirms what you want, because you're biased. You just don't know what "readily available" means. Can't help you there. Your entire article makes my point..
The content on telegram is there almost indefinitely, and readily available. What youre sharing is almost instant bans, includes also reports to links of suspected activity, not the content directly.
You're not using the right search terms?
Readily available means you don't need to search. Y'all are on another level searching for this shit lmao.
You're probably just not tapped into any of the informal networks that are spreading CP on those platforms.
You're young. It really was a thing. It never stayed up long, and they found ways to make it essentially instantaneous, but there was a time it was easy to find very unpleasant things on Facebook, whether you wanted to or not. Gore in specific was easy to run across at one point. CP, it was more offers to sell it.
They fixed it, and it isn't like that now, but it was a problem in the first year or two.
Haha, young ? i wish. But go on making stuff up.
So now it's not that it's readily available, it's that it was in the beginning. So everyone is allowed to let CP go in the first years of their platform? Is that what youre going with. Eww
The fuck are you smoking?
Damn, I hope there's no upper limit to block lists
I guess he just wanna links
So you don't see the difference between the platforms that actually has measures in place to try and prevent it and platforms that intentionally don't have measures in place to try and prevent it?
Man, Lemmings must be even dumber than Redditors or something
If they similarly go unmoderated then action should be taken
