Unfortunate side effect of "free speech". It doesn't look like much of the content is actual child porn, just teens in bikinis and other questionable content.

No child sex as far as I can see, lots of sexualisation of young looking girls. Not by any stretch am I saying it's ok, but if you've been on the internet for as long as some you'll see some shit. Legalities differ from country to country, will be interesting to see how they deal with take down notices

Steemit will not host content that is illegal in the United States.

We comply with all properly formatted DMCA take down notices. The content as far as I can tell (@stellabelle did not specify) is not illegal in the US and we have not received any properly formatted DMCA notices that we have not acted upon.

chatman (44) · 7 years ago (edited)

Even if steemit removes it from displaying, won't it still appear in the blockchain (and other steem based websites?). Afaik, you can't delete from the blockchain? As for the content from what I saw there was some questionably aged Russian nude models but no cp (yet)

The flagging of child pornography is an excellent use of Steem Power and reputation! It puts that sort of content exactly where it should be: at the bottom of the pile and out of sight. This sort of flagging strengthens the Steem community.

However, to include @chainflix's activity alongside @iamgod's is a false equivalence which inhibits the healthy growth of the Steem community. In the case of underage pornography it's pretty easy to identify a victim and therefore how such posts harm the community. With @chainflix's posts, there are no victims.

Intellectual property legislation has been perhaps the most culturally stifling form of statism in human history. If anything, @Chainflix is more of a modern Robin Hood whose service should be rewarded with our upvotes. The fact is that intellectual property is theft. By posting links to films like Back to the Future, @chainflix is restoring culture to the public domain, whereas copyright enforcers would like to keep culture behind a toll booth.

Steem is amazing because it facilitates and incentivizes the flow of information. Along with that freedom comes objectionable material like that posted by @iamgod, however that freedom also enables us to share and restore popular cultural works to the public domain, where they belong.

Please consider joining me in upvoting, or at least not flagging, @chainflix's efforts.

therealwolf (75) · 7 years ago

This happened to me too. Everything I've worked for the last few days gone just because I upvoted one photo I saw while browsing through the NSFW section. Just now after checking out this guys profile I realised that this put me in context of liking that stuff. I don't. I really don't..

Did you heard about pirate bay what happened to that site? Many countries blocked acess to that site. Do you want this to happen to steemit? If we support this than more and more users will spam this content here. Robin hood excuse is pathetic it's about easy money. When you get to much of a attention from movie producers than steemians will be victims because people like you. We will come here to thank you @julianlibertad when that happens. Because you are encouraging others to support this!

I think we as a community need to hear from @ned as not only is there now child porn on here, but someone is uploading copyrighted Hollywood movies: @chainflix

That user is posting links to an external site which we do not control; even if that external site is hosting unauthorized copyrighted content, posting such links to external sites is legal and we will not censor such posts.

We comply with 100% of all properly formatted DMCA takedown requests. (Such requests must be submitted by the copyright holder or their authorized agent.) We have received no such requests for the account you mention.

That model is 18, as a quick google for "met art jasmina age" shows. Furthermore, that content is not hosted by steemit, it is on an external site.

We will be updating the code to disable image inlining for certain users at our discretion and will add this user to the list. Then, their posted images will appear only as URLs: links to external sites, and the images will not appear on steemit.com. Stay tuned, the change should be live in a few hours.

This is sickening and unacceptable. My 14-year-old son has a Steemit account and is an active user. I DO NOT want to find him stumbling on this filth and will now be monitoring his Steemit usage closer. I really thought I could trust our community members enough to not bring crap like this to our platform.

pouchon (70) · 7 years ago

My 14 year old daughter is here too. Steemit is changing the world but we should not forget that this filth is part of the world. Kinda worry me. Let's focus and it is a reminder for us parents to do our job better.
Thanks for the lookout.

stuartgrows (49) · 7 years ago

I know right? I feel the exact same way. What makes me feel batter is knowing that the community itself is jumping on this and taking the steps to make sure its down-voted and flagged. Honestly, there's so much great content, and good will on this platform, I'm really not worried about creepy content getting a foothold.

$0.00

winstonalden (64) · 7 years ago

What's troubling about @chainflix is that this account is not just sharing content, it's using the Steemit and DTube platforms to personally profit from the work of others, without adding any personal content or commentary - or value. What would be much more useful would be a series of thoughtful reviews of movies we might enjoy, with links to where these films could be legitimately watched.

I am not a fan of the copyright industry by any stretch. Sharing and re-mixing the things we love is what culture should be all about. But that's not what's happening here. Worse, this kind of copyright violation discredits our platform and makes a reasonable conversation about copyright more difficult.

As for the other stuff, the implications are especially troubling. If things cannot be deleted from the blockchain, and someone shares material with the blockchain that is outright illegal, could this potentially put the entire platform into legal peril? Could the witnesses who are responsible for maintaining and making available the contents of the blockchain be considered legally responsible for this content?

Any illegal content could potentially imperil the platform. Outside actors who see Steemit as a threat (pro censorship governments, competing social media platforms, or even aggravated trolls with a chip on their shoulder) will then have an incentive to provide this content in an attempt to get it shut down, or tied up in litigation.

You've got me worried, @stellabelle. At least downvoting and making the stuff less visible is a good indication of our intent to keep that stuff off of here.

stellabelle (75) · 7 years ago

I agree with you however, steemit inc. said they will remove any illegal content and also anything DMCA that is brought to them. I think they already have done so in a few cases...not sure on details though. It would be nice if this were laid out for the community

winstonalden (64) · 7 years ago

That's good...I think. I'm strongly anti-censorship, BUT - the last thing we need is to give censors and their attorneys ammunition to argue that a platform like Steemit should be censored.

I guess I'm just afraid that if we don't take care of this ourselves, someone else will step in and take care of it for us.

reddragonfly (64) · 7 years ago

Well done for calling this to the community's attention!

I don't really care whether we are all proud and invested in "no censorship;" certain things need to be called out and dealt with appropriately, simply as a matter of human decency. "Free speech" does not include violating human rights and especially the lives of children. End of story.

stellabelle (75) · 7 years ago

exactly. And after having this brought to my attention, it's so disturbing, no one who engages in that should feel welcome here. Plus it's illegal. We need to make it very clear that abuse, and profiting from abuse is not tolerated.

bachuslib (54) · 7 years ago

Well, that's really hard because only few people have power to shut them down. In my opinion voting system should be changed to such degree that finding a good post and flagging bad ones should be more rewarding than just voting for your own.

It's just disgusting and there shouldn't be a place for such creations, not on steemit and not on the entire world. I don't want censorship, but child pornography does not even need censorship. It's to obvious that's a really no-go that actually there are no further words needed!

personz (66) · 7 years ago

There remains no censorship, this stuff is still on the chain. Flagging the hard just removes their rewards (and hopefully therefore the incentive to do it), reduces the visibility of the post if the front end (e.g. steemit.com, busy.org, eSteem, chainBB, etc.) respects this, and when their rep gets sufficiently low it will reduce the visibility of all their posts, again if the front end respects this.

Really removing this stuff would require the collaboration of a large majority of witnesses and as far as I know it has not been done yet, with no plans to.

Even the nice sides of blockchain technology can sometimes have a negative effect. This is the case with all this pornographic and pirated content.

When our network is "polluted" by low passions and simple people, besides content being supposedly "hidden," nothing else can be done.

It stays here, among us, forever. I do not know how and if we can keep our network at all, and here we are clean.

This reminds me of the google search engine 15 years ago. It was impossible to get you pornographic content or images to show you pornographic content directly.

You can all see what the situation is now...

I do not know if anything can be done to prevent this, but one thing is for sure ... the more popular our platform becomes, the more "bad" content will be flooded

Hi @stellabelle after speaking with you and reading this post it has made me so angry again, to see young children exploited in any nature in not expectable in any form or capacity. The owners need to report these IP's to the proper Authorities so they can learn in jail what happens to filth like these animals posting stuff like this.

@stellabelle - This is appalling news. It made me sick to hear about child porn and copyright violation issues. I think this excellent platform is getting abused by some bad eggs. While we all support freedom of thought, speech and creative content, I believe at least some curbs are needed to stop such blatant disrespect to the original concept of the platform.**
I support your actions and views entirely in this regard. I will keep an eye out for this sort of thing.
A thought though - due to my settings (mostly everyone's default settings I guess) a lot of bad content may get hidden from my view as NSFW content. Should I change that setting so I can detect bad egg posts?

actually a lot of the cp posts were not labeled nsfw.....I was told that it existed.....
The really disturbing part is that many of the photos are of children, found on the internet, and they are not naked, but the user has found parts of their bodies sexually stimulating and pointed it out. It's so gross seeing the mind of a sick person on here. We just don't need to make those people welcome as they bring their disease and all their friends, and then children won't feel safe on here.

How sick can people get!! It really churns my stomach. Here I am, thinking and writing posts about Steemit as a wonderful tool for even girl child education and these sick people are using the very same platform to spread such bad things involving children. I have no words....

I know. I went through a lot of it, and felt really sick because of seeing into some sick person's head. The fact they are combing the internet in search of children is about enough to make me vomit....

i have also read about how these children are trafficked, drugged, etc. to create the images. The girl in one of those looks around 15. There is no way to know but she certainly doesn't look like an adult. It's really disturbing that people are commenting.

Steemit is a reflection of the world. I am almost surprised this didn't happen earlier.

Hmmm. I know. It is inevitable but it still hurts to see it happen. Let us try and curb as much as possible.

Right, I'm pretty sure I don't want to see the actual posts, but I've flagged quite a few aswell now. I guess this shows that completely censorship free might not be the best way to go for Steemit... I feel we definitely need to be able to ban some accounts/IPs/whatever for posting these tings.

While i currently don't use my SP much, due to lack of time, I will just go and flag that perv to oblivion. Everybody, feel free to send me memo when you find disturbing material, and i will gladly spend my votepower for the cause.

Thank you for exposing this horrible case. I think it's important to address it effectively because it would be way too easy for someone to discredit/attack the Steemit platform for the content that this user is uploading.

I believe that kids should not be used in a career fashion photography specially when theres pornography.Adult should teach kids how to be a better person and not to used for porn its an adult wrong doing and he desserves to be flagged.

That's brutal, good on you for flagging. Are there any real consequences that can be levied for this or is it just the reputation score? That is one of the biggest issues with a decentralized platform, we need to come together as a community and put a stop to it and a stop to its source

The person who should take credit for reporting this is @scalextrix. She/he reported it to steemcleaners linkdrop on 18th August (3 days before this post). Steemcleaners instantly followed with appropriate action blacklisting that account and flagging the posts.

Obviously child pornography is one of the more heinous things that occur in this world. I really had to weigh whether it was worth taking a look to see what exactly was meant by this and subjecting myself to something that I would not be able to unsee. I'm not sure what was in past posts, but the only one I was able to look at was of a girl who appears to be a teenager though of what exact age i can't tell. I'm not a fan of looking at naked or slutty pictures of people in general and even if they were thirty years old it would not be my thing, but in the interest of objectivity I do have to ask if you determined that the girls in these pictures were underage? And like I said, I was only able to see one of them, well a group of pictures of one girl, so basically I'm asking if you saw what were undeniably children in these posts?

Really the only reason I want to know is that now I'm seeing an outcry for some kind of formal censorship here. And that is something I do not support. I would definitely support a mob of us chasing out a child pornographer with pitchforks however, lol.

5 years ago, if I heard this kind of news, I would be shocked, but now, reading through your articles, I'm not surprised. I don't know if I should be worried or not, but certainly, this world has already been ugly, but it's only ugly because of the people in it. Looking to the people and to the world again, it's frowned upon.
