What do you propose as an alternative? This isn't govt mandated censorship, it's a private company not wanting to become a CP sharing portal.

- greggarious 9y agoI think the parent's (unstated) implication is that a system that can detect and block from a list of CP hashes could also be used to block any other content. For example, let's say I create an eye catching flyer image detailing locations for a peaceful protest against the firing of a Mueller. Such a system could be used to block it. Right now no one opposes building it, but the capacity once created can be easily abused.
- Raphmedia 9y agoDon't fool yourself. There's nothing stopping any pedophiles from sending links to private websites where their content is hosted. Saying that they are scanning anything to "think of the children" is simply being naive.
