In case you've seen reference to a study claiming Mastodon is filled with child porn, a few things. Ground News labels that cropped headline's publication right wing, fwiw. That story then links back to this piece by SecJuice (no idea their credibility) and apparently it has connections to a subset of problematic Japanese art content. https://www.secjuice.com/mastodon-child-porn-pedophiles/ . Also worth noting the original story was from 2017 which is 7 years ago.
I need to read this more, but yeah, a little context. #mastodon
