I noticed a bit of panic around here lately and as I have had to continuously fight against pedos for the past year, I have developed tools to help me detect and prevent this content.

As luck would have it, we recently published one of our anti-csam checker tool as a python library that anyone can use. So I thought I could use this to help lemmy admins feel a bit more safe.

The tool can either go through all your images via your object storage and delete all CSAM, or it canrun continuously and scan and delete all new images as well. Suggested option is to run it using --all once, and then run it as a daemon and leave it running.

Better options would be to be able to retrieve exact images uploaded via lemmy/pict-rs api but we’re not there quite yet.

Let me know if you have any issue or improvements.

EDIT: Just to clarify, you should run this on your desktop PC with a GPU, not on your lemmy server!

    I don’t host a server myself, but can this tool identify the users who posted the images and create a report with their IP addresses?

    This could help identify who spreads that content and it can be used to notify authorities. No?

      No but it will record the object storage We then need a way to connect that path to the pict-rs image ID, and once we do that, connect the pict-rs image ID to the comment or post which uploaded it. I don’t know how to do the last two steps however, so hopefully someone else will step up for this
