Their response wasn't great in my opinion, they dodged some of the questions like: > Why doesn’t Bluesky block known keywords and terms like “child pornography” or “cp”? > Does Bluesky have different strategies for dealing with text posts discussing child sexual abuse or grooming and images of child exploitation?

> Why doesn’t Bluesky block known keywords and terms like “child pornography” or “cp”? That's 90s tech and useless today. Not only are long-term accounts never going to post it verbatim (if they want to survive on the platform), it will block both normal communication about the issue and unrelated things (lots of cp in shell scripts). There are way better approaches to detection available. When anyone tries that anyway, we get the expected results. Like "the event that can't be mentioned" and "unalive" on YouTube.

  See, this would have been a good response from them, instead of just not answering the question.

    Its a cat and mouse game. Generally, these large companies use information asymmetry as a tool in the war

    I felt it was obvious and didn't need to be said.

  >lots of cp in shell scripts Then I guess shell scripts are next.

The first one seems obvious to me, that's like blocking the terms "murder", "rape", "piracy", "theft" ... etc. Normal discussion involves using those terms.
