      The report (if you can still find a working link) said that the vast majority of material that they found was drawn and animated, and hosted on one Mastodon instance out of Japan, where that shit is still legal.

      Every time that little bit of truth comes up, someone reposts the broken link to the study, screaming about how it’s the entire Fediverse riddled with child porn.

          It’s Pawoo, Pixiv’s (formerly) own instance, which is infamous for this kind of content, and those are still “just drawings” (unless some artists are using illegal real-life references).

            They’re using Generative AI to create photo realistic renditions now, and causing everyone who finds out about it to have a moral crisis.

                … I mean … idk … If the argument is that the drawn version doesn’t harm kids and gives pedos an outlet, is a ai generated version any different?

                  imo, the dicey part of the matter is “what amount of the AI’s dataset is made up of actual images of children”
