How will Lemmy handle illegal content?

How will Lemmy handle illegal content like drug dealing, child porn, snuff movies etc? On Reddit, the corporation is accountable so they will make an effort to ensure non of this exists on their platform. And they would face legal troubles if they failed to act.

But as Lemmy is decentralised this isn't really possible. Sure the main instances can defederate from bad instances, but those instances could still operate and be accessible on the web. Especially if they're hosted in countries outside of the western sphere of influence. Multiple bad instances could federate and duplicate the illegal content pretty easily, making it difficult for the authorities to keep it shut down. Has this been thought about already?

Tesla thinks a grabbing stick is a good replacement for right-hand drive in the UK.
  • It's not just things like reaching for ticket machines, anyone who's taken their car to a country on the other side of the road knows how disconcerting it is to drive. Oncoming traffic is now in the far side of your vehicle which just makes it less comfortable to drive. You get used to it of course, but it's never the same as driving on the correct side. No RHD is an absolute deal breaker for many UK drivers in sure
