anyway, with regards to the incident involving fedi.absturztau.be, I will note the following facts surrounding the incident.

1. the actual contents of the post were not directly verified, but instead inferred from the text content and attachment names of the post.

2. the person in question says the content in the file was not CP.

3. the post in question was deleted by the admin, so it is no longer accessible.

given that nobody involved actually verified the contents of the attachment, and the post in question is now deleted, i cannot say for certain that it was or was not CP.

accordingly, in the absence of any evidence to confirm that it was CP, i am personally willing to accept the explanation of the person in question, that it was a shitpost, that the attachment was *not* CP or any other illegal material, and that the whole thing has gotten completely blown out of proportion.

i apologize to the person in question for fanning the flames in regard to that incident. they deserve better than that.

i also apologize to the admin of the instance in question.
