I am wanting to self host a fediverse instance. I don’t hope to make it big. Hoping for 200 users at most, and I won’t advertise it heavily so it’ll probably be a while before it gets there.
Is it a bad idea to host something like this on local hardware at home? I have a lot of local-only self hosted services, and I wouldn’t want those to be compromised.
But my biggest fear is overloading my network. I already don’t get the fastest signal in some parts of my house, and I am worried the extra traffic might put more pressure on the network.
What are your thoughts on hosting local? Should I just avoid the headache and host on public instance?
Also if somebody films a murder, do we punish everybody that wants to see the video? No.
Then why are we punishing people that just watch it while not solving anything on those making them? 🤷♂️
Logic is a thing people apparently give up for authority. Not me though. Someone that wants to watch CSAM is not your business, just like it isn’t if they watch murder, space stuff of baby cats… (And no, I don’t think they are the same. Taking that from this would just be not wanting to think logic to make another inconsistent counter-attack, so please, don’t.)
The harm with CSAM is already done and you’re taking it out on the wrong persons with help of even worse people, wasting time on targets for what they might do instead of using it on people who actually did/do the bad things creating them.
Good job… Meanwhile I’ll continue to focus on people that actually did something wrong…
You shouldn’t… You should also not be on the internet with that temper against strangers with different opinions…
You do know it’s full of those, right?
Either way, I did not advocate for any such a thing. I’m only saying that the way to deal with a problem is by taking on the cause, not the results… Results will keep coming if the cause remains.
Go stick your effort into getting rid of CSAM’s creation. That way there’s no more children harmed instead of you just making yourself feel better cause you attacked someone on the internet that wouldn’t hurt anyone, but you just preassumed did cause he thinks differently on the subject. I’m not even a CSAM interested person. I hate children getting hurt as much as the next guy. I just wish we worked on a solution instead of bandaids.
And I’m just not taking part in the bandaid part. 🤷♂️
