I was thinking it was AI at first, but I settled on it being a scan of a photograph which then got processed weirdly by the scanning software

What makes CIRA’s IPT test different?
CIRA’s IPT is made up of test servers located throughout Canada at various Internet Exchange Points (IXPs). IXPs are critical hubs on the Canadian internet and play an important part in the efficient and fast transfer of data securely within our borders. Currently located in Vancouver, Calgary, Winnipeg, Toronto, Montreal and Moncton, these servers run a network diagnostic test (NDT) provided by M-Lab, which allows us to run a variety of tests measuring everything from network speed and latency to blocking and throttling.
I think a benefit specific to this project is to build up data that could be used to put more pressure on the telecom companies to fix the issues?
The CIRA Internet Performance Test (IPT) is a quick and easy test of your internet connection, either at home or at work, that gathers data for communities, researchers and decision makers so they can better understand and improve Canada’s internet. It also provides advanced users with detailed technical diagnostic information.
Users can now explore trends and performance data from previous tests, gaining a deeper understanding of internet performance changes over time. These insights empower individuals, researchers and policymakers to track progress and identify gaps.

If you wanted to use the most secure tools available, you'd have to sacrifice a lot of usability. And, even then, nothing is ever fully secure. There's high security, but never full security. That's why threat models are important.
A threat model is a list of the most probable threats to your security and privacy endeavors. Since it's impossible to protect yourself against every attack(er), you should focus on the most probable threats. In computer security, a threat is an event that could undermine your efforts to stay private and secure.

- what do you need to take extra steps for
Congratulations! Looking forward to trying this :)
It could be simple to design since you can have the content federate in and then ignore the removals. That's one of the risks of posting on federated places since there's always a chance that some instance won't respect deletions.
However, if such a tool was made, it might be good to have it be text only and/or hidden behind a login screen. The vast majority of content I remove is spam, and occasionally gross. I wouldn't want that stuff to still be out there polluting the internet
That's the face of having someone catch you with your abundant and unexpected food source
@[email protected] has been amazing and consistent with posting new content, I love when the posts pop up
I remember hearing some concerns with the tool before it was acquired by Mozilla, did they end up resolving those?
Can you try going through each tab and pressing the two check marks button up top
Else you might need to log in to your web instance and clear it there

Could you give a short guide on how to use it, and what the limits are? A link would be cool too :)
