It would be a nice feature for this extention to collect the URLs of detected porn images and report their hashes back, so they could be integrated into the extention itself.

Same here, but I suspect many "career" people here on HN, who grind away in startups imagining they are designing the next big thing that'll save humanity, don't want to hear this.

This might be a controversial opinion, but I have just one word to describe most journalists nowadays: "scum".
They seek exciting and sensationalist stories without regard for any consequences in the real world. They twist their stories to manipulate the readers towards their viewpoint.
But worst of all, they have the gall to present themselves as the upholders of morality and the paragons of democracy. Any criticism you may have for these people is deemed "anti-democratic", which in most peoples heads already is a trigger word for "evil", no amount of arguments can sway them.

> what matters is what the term used to mean 75 years ago?
You got it backwards.
The only definition from that page that is not related to some extremist marxist/anarchist movement is this article:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-fascism
And even that one uses the logo of the Antifaschistische Aktion. None of the other historic Antifascist movements described in that article are in any way relevant today.
Today, "Antifa" is synonymous with "Antifaschistische Aktion".

German Wikipedia. An SPD politician tried to redefine the word "Antifa" to mean just "Antifascist" in the article.

Those are some quick downvotes although I literally wrote the definition of "Antifa" that you can find on Wikipedia. Some people really don't like the truth.

> some Europeans have pushed the American meaning of "antifa" into the term "anarchist".
Let me cite the German Wikipedia:
> Antifa (Akronym für Antifaschistische Aktion) ist der Oberbegriff für verschiedene, im Regelfall eher locker strukturierte, kurzfristige autonome Strömungen der linken bis linksextremen Szene.
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antifa
Here, Wikipedia describes Antifa as an umbrella Term for "autonomous groups" in the far-left extremist scene.
"autonomous groups" being:
> Als Autonome (altgriechisch: αὐτονομία, autonomía, „Unabhängigkeit, Selbstständigkeit“) oder autonome Gruppen werden heute Mitglieder bestimmter linksradikaler[1] unorthodox-marxistischer beziehungsweise anarchistischer Bewegungen bezeichnet.
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonome
Describing them as members of "unorthodox marxist/anarchist" movements.
For all I can remember, this was the definition of "Antifa" here in Germany. Despite constant whitewashing and overton-window shifting attempts.

It might not be problematic to call yourself an anti-fascist in Europe, but specifically Antifa? I don't know in what kind of bubble you live, but to me and most people that I know, this would be outing yourself as a militant Anarchist.
There is a big shitstorm on Twitter and an edit war on Wikipedia right now, because the left wing of the German Social Democrats have appealed to Antifa.

> it's anyone who is anti-fascist
Wrong.
> The Antifa movement in Germany is a political movement, composed of multiple far-left, autonomous, militant groups and individuals who describe themselves as anti-fascist. The use of the epithet fascist against opponents and the understanding of capitalism as a form of fascism are central to the movement.

"Antifa" is not just "anti-fascism". It is short for "Antifaschistische Aktion" and is an umbrella term for loosely related groups of extremist Anarchists/Communists who share the same symbolism, rethoric and tactics.
This is the definition of the word, no matter how much lefists try to whitewash the term and shift the overton window.

Now this looks like an assortment of terrible hacks that I'd never want to use.
Good job though.

Gee, I wonder how people did software development as a hobby before AWS was a thing. Totally impossible, way to hard!
