>archives are in trouble again
What if you traversed the boorus and imageboard archives and created a blake2b hash table of all images that are not deleted after X amount of time? You could sort the database with quicksort/mergesort and it's just a very efficient binary search lookup after that. You could supplant it with a perceptual hash database too and auto approve images with a very close match to pre-approved perceptual hashes; though this is not as secure as a cryptographic hash.

In real time imageboard administration, you could hash every incoming image and look up if there is a match in the database. If there is, post is automatically approved. If there is no match, image won't not displayed until a janitor or mod approves, or approval could be augmented by a community poll. Posters with a history could approve images and make them visible to everyone. After approval, image hash could appended to the database. Better if there is collaboration between imageboards to expand this database.

Do you have any better ideas to allow every proxy under sun and still have no CSAM anywhere on your imageboard? I thought about a pseudo-account system with zero-knowledge blinded proofs (anonymous authentication basically) for known-good pre-approved posters too but you will levy the same criticism again.

So you want to discuss twitter and rapeape complaining and you're also a free speech absolutist that decries people taking action against illegal content as "censorship". I'm very close to purging this thread of your cancer before it metastasizes as I recognize this song and dance.

That is a good idea.

>>165250
Yeah right, just because I don't want a system where I have to wait for any post to get approved by a mod I'm "defending CP". God damn how much more of a bad faith retard can you be. Are you an admin or mod here who stalks my post? Maybe you can point out where I'm being a free speech absolutist, or where I'm actually against anyone taking action against illegal content? This is libel.

There are image hashes that are resistant against various transformations and cropping. You probably get get pretty far, even if they can beat it by trying hard enough.
what 4chan does is laughable anyway. They use the md5 of the image, so it only takes changing a pixel to circumvent the block.

Your database will always be outdated, too small, and there isn't even a guarantee that none of the sources you want to scrape for hashes of supposedly safe images are accidentally illegal content. They're probably also going to block you if you mass-scrape them.
You'll practically end up with a system that requires approving most images posts. Maybe even text posts, because they could just spam links to illegal content.

Heuristics work but it's a full time job.

 No.165260

>>165258
It shouldn't be too outdated as I will be scraping on a daily basis, though of course I have incorporated throttling so my database will not be in real time, but this scraping process has to be done only once as I will be sharing my database with zero strings attached. It's not more taxing than a single user clicking every image only once.
I already have scraped close to half of a booru and a small portion of the archives and nobody raised a stink about it yet so I figure my throttling helps a lot.
If I have to approve a lot of things that's fine. This just speeds up the approval process in case someone is just reposting an image from a source I trust. Filtering links is much simpler than what I am doing with images.

Just to add fuel to the fire and to be the bearer of more bad news, even if I don't want to discuss the board's topic at hand here, 4chan's /vt/ out of all boards has started to get AI posts where the content of a post is short and inane shit about X vs Y. The OP image is run through AI to transfigure the OP pictures to do shitposting to circumvent hash and other detection techniques.
https://archive.palanq.win/vt/thread/106557670/
https://archive.palanq.win/vt/thread/106590008/
I don't quite understand why they are doing this as opposed to algorithmically corrupting the image in certain places instead but there might have been some sort of shift in the background of how images are being detected for shitposting and etc. and that might have started this shift to using AI over other types of image to keep posting images. But in any case, this bodes quite badly for the state of things if this is occurring.

>over other types of image
over other types of image manipulation techniques

Of course, this could be explained by someone extremely lazy who can't be arsed to do basic image editing but I highly doubt that, even open source image editing AI models will try and keep details consistent if you asked it to do cropping and etc.

Offtopic, but It makes me think that if JPG degradation over years of uploading and downloading wasn't bad enough (not to mention the phonetards that screenshot instead of saving images), shit's going to get way worse when on top of the re-compression, they (Imgur, or any social network giant or whatever) start applying AI to make the images pop again and over time we end with something that looks nothing like the original (And youtube is already doing something like that).

This shit is why I was so heavily against vtubers being a welcome discussion in 4chan. I don't have any strong opinion about vtubers but I knew that at one point it'd just devolve into console war-like shitholes (my e-celeb is better than your e-celeb) and now it has reached the point of AI-made bait threads.
I'd also argue it's the same with politics, but more organized groups have set up bots to be more subtle while also agitating users.
I'm now starting to wonder if the botnet surrounding 4chan is far more big than people think.

Let me guess
¥ adversarial ai training with a reward function geared towards maximum user engagement, topic derailment, narrative building, and user demoralization
¥ simply shutting the website down would disperse the users into smaller imageboards of which there is plenty
¥ so the appropriate intervention is to flood the conversation with meaningless ai diarrhea,
make users gradually lose interest and leave for big tech platforms
Makes sense why only some "shitposters" are operating with complete impunity from any moderation.

I think we urgently need to establish some ground-truths with we crosscheck incoming information and adopt some habits of mental hygiene such as default to null: The mental motion of “I didn’t really understand that post, or it didn't make too much sense to me, but sure, whatever, I’ll take the author’s word for it” is, in my experience, absolutely identical to “I didn’t really understand or couldn't relate to that text because it was bot-generated and didn’t make any sense so I couldn’t possibly have parsed it”, except that in the first case, I assume that the error lies with me rather than the text. This is not a safe assumption in a post-GPT world. Instead of “default to humility” (assume that when you don’t understand a passage, if it doesn't make sense in the context of your pre-established ground-truths and expectations of how a normal person should behave, but the overall message seems genuine and you’re just missing something) the ideal mental action in a world full of bots is “default to null” (if you don’t understand a passage, reflexively discard the message and assume you’re in the same mental state as if you’d never read it at all.)

I don't know. I find that one easier than the standard slider. It's easier to align using "only type", and it always asks the exact thing: letters with circles above.
If it started asking for letters with white or black circles, or alternating between circles and dashes, that's when it would get hard.

>>165421
At first I thought I was getting it because I block the access to the HTML5 canvas data, but now I'm wondering if they turn it on globally on weekends during peak hours to slow down the posting flow and give the staff more time to act, as once it's Monday I get the normal captcha again, then "No captcha required".

It never should have been made into a board. Not because I can't stand tumors but because everything that had been said over the decades on /tv/ or /v/ about not having a youtube/eceleb board applies directly to why /vt/ existing is a terrible idea.
The last time 4chan had anything resembling /vt/ the mods took a fucking hammer to old /cgl/. I guess that lesson's been forgotten or they think in the era of 200 mods and janitors this time they can catch it before it spills into real world crimes. Personally I think the board isn't worth that dice roll in the least.

James came fully clean in the recent video and streams and says he had to call it quits because some of the people who found him visited his and / or his parents' workplace. The object was indeed DIY and supposedly got confiscated.

I've found all of this very interesting and entertaining to follow. I don't mind the prank itself at all, but what irks me personally is that the guy is a total douchebag about the reveal, acts like he's some kind of Lex Luthor in the flesh and makes fun of the people who were worried about him and those who didn't immediately dismiss his story. I assume the equally as stupid hate prior to the reveal got to him and now he's proud to be the villain.
As an interesting side note, he gave his thoughts on the Buga Sphere being a hoax as well.

Back to imageboards:
While this situation sadly opened my eyes to how /x/, too, has become completely unbrowsable compared to when I last checked it out, I really enjoyed those few anons completely feeding into the story for fun and even now claiming James was pressured into pretending this is a hoax.

I'm half convinced they use the term "range ban" as shorthand for any combination of cookie bans, content-based heuristics, browser fingerprinting, actual IP range bans, untested third party blocklists and randomized "ID yourself to bypass" incentives these days.
For example, I just got hit with this for the first time. New private browsing session, so it's not a cookie ban. Only made a few unobjectionable posts from this browser profile a few weeks ago, which has settings specific enough that it's probably globally unique, so it's probably not user agent related either. And I seriously doubt my landline ISP in a small non-English country that doesn't have a reputation for spam attracts a large enough percentage of shitposters to incur an actual range ban for other users' behavior. That leaves the last two options.
Either way, it's a clever way to boost activity on better imageboards.

Some will, like me, elect to use a proxy for the odd post I still make to not be hassled for something I'm not guilty of in the first place.

Most are overattached control freaks trying to spite this or that thread / poster who does things they don't like. 4chan completely mindbreaks this type of person as they don't have any way to actually force people to do what they want without burning the whole place down - so that's exactly what they do.

I have the same problem. I have a really hard time breaking out of 4chan-esque writing, because I started using that site at a young enough age that it's all I've ever really done.

In general, it's weird to think just how much 4chan has shaped me as a person, considering I don't really think of myself as a "4chan guy" at this point. I definitely started using the site at way too young of an age. A middle-schooler shouldn't have fifteen tabs worth of racial-slur filled arguments about trivial things going at once, and he especially shouldn't be clicking back and forth between them obsessively, trying to get the last word in all of them. People say being surrounded by that kind of thing toughens you up, but in reality, it does the opposite. You come to think that that level of intensity is the norm, that people in general are stupid assholes, and it makes you irrationally depressed about the world around you.

In my case I would say that 4chan has changed me for the better. It has had its hiccups sure, but overall I have become more critical of reality and aware of different perspectives. Its still massively more open and free than other sites despite its jannies... and more lulzy too.
Now, what I DO think is its biggest problem nowadays is the perception of relationships and women. Its completely divorced from reality and in all honesty is probably some crest research/government/etc. campaign to destroy the minds of young men. Sexuality is such an enormous part of humanity and if you're a believer of the supernatural the energy behind it is lucrative. Using boards like /r9k/, /fit/, and /pol/ is a net negative experience nowadays.

Now the moderation pipeline is all kinds of fucked because jannies are literally gimped on their ability to moderate, and have to depend on mod approval to use half the tools that are "only for mods" for literally no good reason when the entire thing can be streamlined by having mods check activity logs instead of moderate directly and let jannies work their boards independently.

>the 2 tiers system between janitors and mods is completely unnecessary
At 4chan's scale, having multiple tiers of staff is probably unavoidable. Admins of small imageboards can just appoint trusted friends as mods, but that stops scaling once they need to hire more mods than they can get to know personally.
A 2-tier system could help with vetting and promotion if the board software had some kind of staff reputation system, mods actually cared, and the admin/head mod didn't play favorites.

For example:
Assign each mod to one or two boards based on their affinity with the board's topic and culture. Have each board's mods interview prospective jannies and hire them by blind majority vote. Track the amount of hours per week each janny is online, their ratio of interventions per hour, and the percentage of their interventions that align with the majority. (New jannies have a trial period during which their actions only take effect after 3 jannies agree.)
Once their trial period ends, give jannies with a high enough hours-to-approved-interventions ratio the power to hand out short bans, but track the ratio of bans that are successfully appealed and silently shadowban jannies whose appeal ratio is too high. (The "silently" part is important to weed out infiltrators. Keep them working without knowing if they have any power to make sure power isn't their motivation.)
Mods must post one "state of the union" sticky per year where they answer meta questions. Admins review their answers, give mods one warning if they seem out of touch with the community, and fire them if they don't improve after one year. Jannies that serve for multiple years with a good ratio are first in line when new mods need to be appointed.

Of course, the simpler solution is to split your site before it grows to the point where it needs that kind of organizational overhead, because any community with a 5+ digit number of posters is probably too internally divided to be a real community.

Exactly. That type of schizo will shy no effort to get around any such blocks. If 4chan would act competent and quick, you could probably frustrate him by completely blocking him after a first post, even if he went through trouble like buying a new mobile device just to evade his ban. But the 4chan staff is slow, incompetent, and uncaring. It's the detroit of websites.

>Really? It's probably very easy to find out what data cloudflare supplies to website admins, but I've never tried to read their API docs.
iirc it's just the geoloc data from IPs and the cloudfare ray (which iirc2 is just the unique id for the packet).

unless the ray includes packet contents, i doubt they store anything the webmaster can't store. Real question is how often the delete the logs because they certainly won't store them forever - they service 1/3rd of the entire internet.

this isn't really a javascript problem btw, it's a problem of missusing the browser's HTML rendering engine to produce effects. The proper way to do this might be with the HTML5 Canvas, but I'm not sure if this allows for cursor pass through so what you have problems with is the best we've got..

You'd need to define what "mainstream" is since they started as template console war wojaks on /v/ in 2016 or so? Once it became its own subgenre of all-purpose templates instead of insular /v/ shitposts is when I'd say it went mainstream, which was around 2019.

That's barely even a conspiracy theory. It takes someone with knowledge of 4chan's software stack and (lack of) organizational structure to come up with that hack.

While it's not permission to turn the new thread into a complaint box, it may just come with the territory.

Did you mean the registrar? Because the post above claims Cloudflare hasn't blocked Kohlchan.
In any case, this reinforces the importance of having multiple layers of defense: a blocklist with known CSAM hashes (ideally shared between admins who trust each other), a mod team that spans enough timezones to leave no gaps, and maybe a report feature that hides a post and fake-404s the image if it gets reported by more than one user with a high trust cookie within a specified time, until a mod either purges the post or dismisses the report to restore it.
If any board goes longer than 24 hours without a new post or a staff visit, maybe admins should be notified to see if the board could be reassigned, merged or deleted.

So the perpetrator seems to have exposed himself. The reason he did this was because kohlchan kept deleting "lg" threads. Im sure i dont have to explain what lg means. Essentially hes a butthurt pedo that started spamnming cp because lg "generals" were no longer tolerated.

lg could mean little girls, which seems to be pedo slang. If you observe loli threads, only fags who tend to talk about 3DPD tend to use it at all.

Funny how this is in contrast to that one slandering faggot who said the kohl admin allowed anything.

Did you miss the part mods allowed a pedophilia general for months and what prompted the attack was banning it?
Which if you followed KC you'd know it's because it's not the first brush with the law. You literally have the admin statements of being forced to comply with take down requests.
It's literally pedophile on pedophile violence.

>"if they treated /int/ the same way they treated /b/"
Because the german side of KC is even more openly pedo than the int side.

What the fuck it's this derail?
"this modern site where mods actively allowed pedophiles to post csam and grow until they started making demands is tangentially similar to this completely unrelated board culture from 20 years ago therefore the modern site"

>where moot tried to allow anything that is legal
You don't even know kuso about old /b/. Don't try to cite the ancient magic at me faget, i was there (3 years late) when it was written.
moot never allowed pedophilia or "toeing the line with the law". Pedophiles were banned on sight, even people who made raid threads got canned and that wasn't illegal.

Even then, let's play devils advocate: Having *literal victims from material produced by confirmed human trafficking CSAM rings on the banners* was actually illegal under german law, but Helmut was simply too retarded to check.

I've started noticing them more and more in lolicon adjacent threads. It is very blatant well poisoning. And the worst part is that these malicious faggots are just allowed to continue until they start spamming csam and more actively trying to get the thread banned. This wouldn't happen if moderators actually moderated loli threads and curb stomped 3dpd niggers on sight.

Orgchan (krautchan.org) was created around a year ago by some old mods from Kohlchan, they have really strict moderation, you'll be banned for offending a mod, saying anything not Ukraine friendly, posting frogs, and any kind of discrimination that isn't against Russians.

Well, the new retarded 14 day thread decision pretty much destroyed the "Take it Easy" aspect of 4/jp/.
If the goal was to kill necro ghostbumping, they could've implemented unbumping upon deleting but that's complex rocket science for the retard staff.
If the goal is to kill generalfaggotry, 14 days is still long enough for generals to stay while encouraging threadspam to push them off the catalog while also short enough to kill long-term quality threads. In that aspect, I'd say go full Futaba and have threads last only one day, generals would be completely eradicated.
Pretty kuso decision overall, it goes to show that the staff is completely out of touch and came on board when the tumor infestation happened. In fact, I'm pretty sure there hasn't been a /jp/ dedicated mod in years, they're largely shared with /vt/.

The problem is that 4/jp/ isn't Futaba, like I said the best threads were those that lasted weeks and where Anons contributed when they wanted (like the smughu thread). Implementing a 1 day bumplimit would probably kill generals... along with the rest of the board.
At this point I don't think I even care.
I do kinda feel bad for the anons that didn't get the memo though ^^;
Also I decided (against my better judgement) to check how they're doing, and it's a complete kuso show over there.
