| You're walking headfirst into the copyright, CSAM, pornography hole of content moderation here. |

| How is this any different than the regular hole of content moderation they're already in? |

I guess the question is whether or not the disposition of a social media network makes that more problematic than it does with, say, Google drive. | | |

| Agreed. I assume this will open up Bluesky to a lot of potential legal problems. But will it be any different from accesing the content using the app as the content is anyway hosted. That said, just the other day I was thinking, is the reverse possible. I have a web site/blog. Use RSS and then the RSS updates are posted to a handle on Bluesky. I would assume that's a lot more useful? |

Use RSS and then the RSS updates are posted to a handle on Bluesky. I would assume that's a lot more useful? This is trivial, I'm currently doing this for https://bsky.app/profile/aemet-bot.bsky.social which reads a bunch of RSS feeds from AEMET (Spain's national weather service basically) and posts warnings to the feed if there is any warning above Yellow. The code for managing this is about ~200 lines of Rust code. |

| As opposed to running a social network? What else is new |
