Say a user doxxes someone, uploads illegal material, or uploads copyrighted material; what is the extent the responsability of instance owners/admins when it comes to what users post?

    Legally speaking? I believe webhosts are required to remove illegal materials whenever its brought to their attention. If a site owner keeps the materials online after being told to remove it, that’s when they can get in trouble.
