> Definitely weird to be "happy" that the government is cracking down on people who help prevent the propagation of CSAM.

I mean... This is HN... You should see people's reaction when Apple decided to do something about it...





Apple wanted to scan pictures stored on our phones using a perceptual diff algorithm and compare them by similarity to known CSAM. So basically there’s a world out there where the baby bath pics your wife took will get flagged and she’ll have to prove she’s not a predator.

What the "something" is actually matters.

I guess the how the government cracks down mattered to somebody too
