Something we can call community notes. NOSTR already has support for reporting this type of profile. It depends on the relays identifying the profiles and not returning their notes.
#asknostr among the problems that Nostr faces, the child porn problem is a very, very, very bad problem.
A VERY bad problem.
What is the current thinking among developers about how to deal with this?
Nobody likes censorship, but the only solution I can think of (SO FAR) is running an image identification service that labels dangerous stuff like this, and then broadcasts a list of (images, notes, users?) who are scoring high on the "oh shit this is child porn" metric. Typically these systems just output a float between zero and 1, which is the score....
Is anyone working on this currently?
I have a good deal of experience of running ML services like image identification at scale, so this could be something interesting to work on for the community. (I also have a lot GPU power, and anyway, if you do it right, this actually doesn't take a ton of GPUs to do even for millions of images per day....)
It would seem straightforward to subscribe to all the nostr image uploaders, generate a score with 100 being "definite child porn" and 1 being "not child porn", and then broadcast maybe events of some kind to relays with this "opinion" about the image/media?
Maybe someone from the major clients like nostr:npub1yzvxlwp7wawed5vgefwfmugvumtp8c8t0etk3g8sky4n0ndvyxesnxrf8q or #coracle or nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg or nostr:npub18m76awca3y37hkvuneavuw6pjj4525fw90necxmadrvjg0sdy6qsngq955 has a suggestion on how this should be done.
One way or another, this has to be done. 99.99% percent of normies, the first time they see child porn on #nostr ... if they see it once, they'll never come back.....
Is there an appropriate NIP to look at? nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6 ? nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft ? nostr:npub16c0nh3dnadzqpm76uctf5hqhe2lny344zsmpm6feee9p5rdxaa9q586nvr ?

OK, but I think that's not fast enough. The bad guys move too fast, you'll never be able to actually prevent n00bs from seeing the very bad stuff like this. (I think.)
And most important Relays should report all logs about these accounts to the police. It is not as if this is freedom of speech and many just do not like it. It is common sense, that people sharing those should be nowhere, but behand bars.
