Tell that to the people whose private photos are scanned and are falsely

It's already happening. Is it better that 30m images were used to violate

Chris,

You can't make that assessment without fabricating the percentage of
convictions, which, let's be clear, is the most important metric of all.

The people who reported all this CSAM bullshit *know* that the percentage
of convictions is the most important metric without which everything is BS.

Given they didn't bother to report that metric, we must assume it's 0.

Hence, as far as we know, out of 30 million images reported, exactly zero
convictions resulted - which means every report was a false positive.

Think about that.

Everyone was harmed.
Nobody was protected.

It's a classic case of pure bullshit.
