There have been users spamming CSAM content in [email protected] causing it to federate to other instances. If your instance is subscribed to this community, you should take action to rectify it immediately. I recommend performing a hard delete via command line on the server.

I deleted every image from the past 24 hours personally, using the following command: sudo find /srv/lemmy/example.com/volumes/pictrs/files -type f -ctime -1 -exec rm {} \;

If you aren't going to fully wipe your drive in horrible events like this, at the very least use shred instead of rm. rm simply removes references to the file in the filesystem, leaving the data behind on the disk until other data happens to be written there.

Do not ever allow data like that to exist on your machines. The law doesn't care how it got there.
