I just had to deal with the worst kind of report, I immediately banned the account and cleared associated media from our CDN

Ended up spending the evening working on federating account deletions to purge this from known fediverse servers (done ✅)

Now I'm working to make it easier for admins to report illegal content to the authorities

I'm making this public because @pixelfed needs your help to report sus posts and feedback on how to keep our community safe from illegal content

@dansup@mastodon.social @pixelfed@mastodon.social it should be stated here that each country has specific laws and requirements for administrators to best deal with this content. In the US, there is a duty to preserve for at least 90 days on a remote server that is essentially treated like toxic waste that only you have access to. The legal requirements depends on each jurisdiction but very few on the fediverse seem to know what their laws are on that end

Admins can run `php artisan app:user-account-delete` after updating to the latest commits to deliver remote delete actor activities!

PR: https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/pull/4997

This will be automated in the near future when you delete an account, and will also handle previously deleted accounts!

@dansup @pixelfed Your hard work pays off for you. An inattentive dev might not have caught that until more serious consequences were already playing out.
