@aem@infosec.exchange There isn't even a way to disable inline media for rooms. We have no way to stop people who use Matrix being forcibly exposed to CSAM. That alone is causing the majority of our active Matrix community to move to Discord. Every time the CSAM raids start up again, there's a mass exodus to Discord. It's not only our rooms being targeted this way. Many major open source project Matrix rooms have experienced it. Our rooms have been raided far more than others but it's often not specific to us.

I help run a moderately sized instance and have been effected by a number of raids like this. We deployed Mjolnir to do some blocking from public blocklists (which is definitely not a very resilient way to do it), but also I suspect it wont work when we need it. It might also do image CWing but I haven’t toyed with that much.

Regardless, the damage was done and a fair number of people were exposed to really vile content.
