It's why they have a report feature. No idea how well they moderate things tho.

Site seems best for gags with friends.

I used to run a public link shortener. Once the scammers catch wind and add it to their rotation all bets are off. I got inundated with reports and my standing with my web host would have been at risk as well (long story). I now use Shlink on those domains lol.
