About ten years ago when I was on Twitter someone tweeted to please go report an account which was horrible without saying why. So I went to the account. Twitter in those days had thumbnails of the pictures you posted at the bottom of your account that you could swipe through, so you saw a bunch of photos at once instead of individually, and it was child sexual abuse material. Thankfully it was only thumbnail sized so I just got a sense of it without really seeing horrifying detail, but I was pretty depressed.
I don't know, the world is depressing. Recently, details about Palestine have been disheartening...
It was actually when I first started using this site. I've been jumpscared by worst shit spammed by some bot on Lemmy Shitpost than anything I've ever seen mingling around internet edgelords

Constant abuse of user's data and disregard for the security and integrity of said data.
Another thing was the madness that is/was the Horizon computer post office scandal in the UK.
People had their lives ruined and some even killed themselves due to a faulty computer system.
I can't do it justice here, but there are good videos about it on yt.

Like honestly, what the fuck is wrong with people? I remember adding random people on Snap (back then, I used it a lot for scambaiting so I'd talk to deposit scammers a lot) and in my recommended, there was a person called "(name-of-girl) Dog" so you would think maybe it's just a person posting pictures of their dog on their stories, right? Wrong. (Content warning) >! It's a girl selling videos of her fucking her dog !< I just noped out of there, didn't even try to find out if it was real (should hopefully be fake, as regular pic sellers usually are, but you never know).
