    U r aware that until e2ee and online anonymity exists, pedos WILL be active online? Forget e2ee. Every social network (including Lemmy, Matrix, Mastodon) has an active pedo userbase.

    There is absolutely no way to completely censor pedos. Hence, the only thing that we can do is educate children about consensual sex, rape, etc… Basically something like a vaccination against sexual assault. It wouldn’t work every time, but it would at least statistically reduce the probability of child sexual abuse. Unfortunately, this is all that we can do.

      Omegle actively allowed that disease to flourish, and has been for over a decade a mainstream hub for pedophiles. This is not some recent phenomenon. Chaturbate, Snapchat and such services allow the same, allowing pedophilia and bestiality creators. You think that’s by coincidence? The Fediverse platforms you mentioned have nowhere near as many, or even percentage wise in the ballpark of what the forementioned mainstream platforms have. They are dominated by that audience. Abuse of platforms exists, but abuse is never allowed to dominate a significant proportion of userbase. Lemmy, for example, has probably only 15-20 such micro instances that are defederated very well by everyone else.

      Are you aware of this, or are just gonna call it slippery slope and end the argument?
