I think you could say the same for a lot of countries. Even the ones that seem to know what they’re doing make braindead decisions sometimes.

I was a little confused since I’m from America and am used to all utilities being privately owned, so I did some research. It does look like Japan’s government owns a majority stake in the company, specifically because of this disaster. The private stakeholders are still there but own minority stakes. So yeah, the government of Japan dropped the ball here. It’s strange that I read the linked article and they never mentioned the government once.
Ah, that’s fair. Best of luck either way. This is the tough part of admin work. FWIW, the stability we’ve had thus far has been pretty impressive!
I’m not familiar with what the server architecture looks like, but is there a possibility of using a load balancer in front of the instance’s server and swapping a “beta” server into the load balancer when you need to do testing? You could basically migrate your traffic with zero downtime, assuming Lemmy’s architecture allows for it.
Poor guy should have done a 10 second Google search before commenting.
I’m not a lawyer either, but a quick search shows that state law is the thing this could be breaking. It’s not criminally punishable to possess it, but acquiring or distributing it via the internet is potentially illegal. Here’s a page from a Massachusetts lawyer discussing the legality. https://anthonyricciolaw.com/is-lolicon-legal-in-the-us/#:~:text=Under federal law%2C a simple,state laws regarding child pornography.
Edit: apparently that’s only part of the requirements for illegality. The other part is sexuality or not having “value” which is subjective. Either way, it’s a dice roll on criminal acts.
As I’ve pointed out in a few spots on this post: regardless of your moral stance, loli is considered the same as child porn by many government agencies. You may not be “harming” anyone, but you’re harming the people that host and view that content in a criminal sense.
Loli stuff is illegal though, at least in the United States. Viewing even accidentally can be considered a crime. The OP has a valid point.
Loli is illegal in some countries. It’s illegal in the US, if that’s where OP is located. Any depiction of a minor in a sexual situation, whether drawn or photographed, is considered child pornography.
There’s allegedly a patch rolling out soon for this. It’s a known bug.
If you think about it from a security perspective, it makes sense. If a random person you don’t know sends you an email, the chances are non-zero that it contains something malicious. The provider has an obligation to filter emails that could be dangerous. They know that if a large email service sends an email, they have that same obligation and are therefore doing some filtering on their side to prevent malicious content. Trust is pretty important.
