#asknostr among the problems that Nostr faces, the child porn problem is a very, very, very bad problem.

A VERY bad problem.

What is the current thinking among developers about how to deal with this?

Nobody likes censorship, but the only solution I can think of (SO FAR) is running an image identification service that labels dangerous stuff like this, and then broadcasts a list of (images, notes, users?) who are scoring high on the "oh shit this is child porn" metric. Typically these systems just output a float between zero and 1, which is the score....

Is anyone working on this currently?

I have a good deal of experience of running ML services like image identification at scale, so this could be something interesting to work on for the community. (I also have a lot GPU power, and anyway, if you do it right, this actually doesn't take a ton of GPUs to do even for millions of images per day....)

It would seem straightforward to subscribe to all the nostr image uploaders, generate a score with 100 being "definite child porn" and 1 being "not child porn", and then broadcast maybe events of some kind to relays with this "opinion" about the image/media?


Maybe someone from the major clients like YakiHonne (npub1yzv…rf8q) or #coracle or primal (npub12vk…pugg) or damus (npub18m7…q955) has a suggestion on how this should be done.

One way or another, this has to be done. 99.99% percent of normies, the first time they see child porn on #nostr ... if they see it once, they'll never come back.....

Is there an appropriate NIP to look at? fiatjaf (npub180c…h6w6) ? PABLOF7z (npub1l2v…ajft) ? miljan (npub16c0…6nvr) ?
