The instance owners do not wish to host potentially problematic content.

I will try to locate a more suitable instance.

    I don’t seem to be able to make myself understood. Once again: monitoring of (encrypted) connections is irrelevant. Or just getting the data from your own federating instance.

    Consider an anonymously paid bulletproof hosted lemmy instance. The admin is unknown, the hosters are not responsive to takedown requests, jurisdiction is neutral or welcoming. I can think of multiple such controversial instances that have survived for decades. It’s the gold standard, but silver or even bronze is far better than a jumpy self-censoring guy hosting stuff at a severely problem-averse hoster like Hetzner.

    If end users want to add protection layers to that it is their own prerogative and out of scope. EOT.

      No I understand you quite clearly. You want to make the instance owner liable for your content. I am saying the instance owner does not want to be legally liable for your content. Do you seee how the world does not revolve around your wishes and desires? How much are y’all paying this instance owner to make it worth their while for taking on all this risk, zero monies? Yeah that won’t work, and the community is likely to be banned or defederated. Oh look, like it did.

      I am just explaining the reality. You are explaining your desires.

      Example: Some pedophiles started posting CSAM to lemmyshitpost, and now lemmyshitpost is down. Do you understand me yet?
