Dealing With Abuse on The Fediverse

I found this academic paper from Stanford's Internet Observatory that's actually brilliant! It not only addresses rampant predatory behaviour on certain parts of the fediverse, but proposes a federated solution to automatically reporting CSAM to NCMEC. I would absolutely implement this in a heartbeat! ​:vlpn_happy_heart:​

What do you guys think? I'm sure there's some caveats to this approach, but I can see minor issues being ironed out pretty quickly.
