 Hello everyone, here to do research on trust and safety on Nostr. 
 What exactly do you mean by trust and safety and who are you doing the research for? 
"Trust and safety" often means enforcing government policies to exclude people around the world from participating in the community. Is that what you are doing? 
 No, I'm only here to continue the conversation already started and be a resource for devs trying to figure out what to do with illegal content.

It seems like many of them don't know what sort of risks they're exposing users to by creating "reporting" features. Others, like nostr.build are doing the right thing by reporting stuff to NCMEC.

Coordination between service providers is challenging, which is good for censorship resistance, bad for keeping users safe from legal liability.

I've adopted the term "Trust and Safety" as my username with tongue somewhat in cheek, sort of like our revered "Nostr CEO".
