How image scanning works

Image scanning is experimental, may not be accurate, and is off by default. When a server owner enables it, qualifying uploads are checked only for severe graphic real-world violence and explicit sexual content. Ordinary image attachments over 10 MiB are skipped.

Server-wide opt-in with per-channel overrides.
The same observe, review and enforcement policy model used for content moderation.
Moderator exemption applies by default.
Provider or network failure leaves the content in place.
