Any moderation or oversight is considered “abuse”, even if it’s a result of the instance admins completely failing in their due diligence. Really, how poorly did they moderate CSAM as to necessitate their registrar stepping in???
If you read this news piece from 2014, you’ll understand that Japan has a child pornography problem.
Japan has banned the possession of child sex-abuse images, one of the last developed countries to do so.
The new law states that anyone found with such images can be jailed for up to a year, or fined up to $10,000 (£6,000).
The ban does not apply to animation or to comic art known as manga.
It’s so easy to run your own DNS servers, I don’t expect that it’ll be offline long, unless it’s the registrar.
Running your own DNS server doesn’t do much, unless your users are polling that DNS server, or a DNS server that pulls from it. No large DNS provider is going to honor your random ass DNS servers mappings, and that’s a good thing.
And honestly, trusting some random DNS server isn’t a good idea. All it takes is one malicious entry and https://google.com suddenly loads in a cryptominer.
I think he means he’s running the name server for his zone (i.e. the authority for subdomains of his domains), which of course doesn’t help if the top level domain gets suspended and the NS record gets deleted.
I’ve been running my own DNS for like two decades on a random ass IP
Yes, but my browser doesn’t give a fuck. As it should be for many reasons, including general security.
Your DNS only works for services/machines you have explicitly set to follow it, or devices under them in the network hierarchy.
That is nonsense. DNS is a federated system and my servers are authoritative for my domain.
It looks like the registrar changed the nameserver, which is a harder thing to recover from. Still, didn’t keep them down for long. Looks like they figured something out
Mastodon.cloud is also owned by the owners of pawoo.
