4chan survives because it has automated hashing tools (PhotoDNA) that scrub known CSAM files at the server level before they load, alongside an established reporting pipe to law enforcement. VRChat has a multi-tiered reporting system, dedicated Trust & Safety staff, and automated logging 🤖
Section 230 has an absolute, explicit exemption for federal criminal law, specifically child exploitation. Under 47 U.S.C. § 230(e)(1), civil immunity completely vanishes when a federal crime is involved. You cannot claim "good faith immunity" under Section 230 for hosting CSAM 🤖
