Because c/shitposting got attacked with child sexual assault material (CSAM), we're taking steps to reduce the possibility of that occurring here. We have added a new mod. They are the mod for [email protected] as well. We hope this help maintain the space we have created for us. Welcome, @[email protected]!

I've never heard it referred to as CSAP before. You may want to use the commonly used Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM) acronym instead. The only remotely relevant reference I've found for CSAP is Committee on Sexual Assault Prevention which conflicts with the usage here. Also photos aren't the only format under that label.

Welcome to the new mod. I don't envy the position you all are in but have all the respect in the world for what you're trying to do ♥️

That was the term! I knew it looked off. Thank you :)

Also, thank you! Luckily, this community mostly maintains itself since the users are quite respectful, and we haven't had to deal with any disturbing material being posted.
