    [Sarcasm] Almost like turning to automated moderation systems and only caring about money is a recipe for not caring about anything else and blaming it on the bots that do work you should be doing yourselves.

      I mean, where is the profit in moderating it? They’re not here to be q fairy godmother or anything

        Right, which is why commercial social media will always be shit and full of nazis.

    Yes, fighting crime (especially such uncommon crime) is a lot more important than privacy or non-censorship. That is definitely the right attitude for a free society. Nothing bad can come from it. /s

    John Perry Barlow was right with his Declaration of the Independence of Cyberspace.

    Can we trust any Australian organisation talking about children abuse? I suppose only Afghanistan has more restrictive censorship. I think Australia will find some abuse even in a brick to have an excuse to forbid access to information.

    I think this will soon be required by the Trump administration, so they’re just getting ahead of the curve.
