Um. No?
I would be very surprised if more than 10% of people in possession of sexual images of under 18s molested (pre-pubecent) children.
- intended 5y agoThere’s a database of known child porn. The hashes of these images are compared with the content on peoples phones.
- smolder 5y agoI don't think GP missed that point, and it seems like you missed theirs. Having illegal CSAM and molesting children are two different crimes.
- intended 5y agoThe OP gets away with that argument, because many people who have such images are also, hopefully, also minors. However, this is NOT the use case being applied for here. Holding those images, which are not part of known CP, will not be an issue, brining it up is a red herring. ~The issue most people have fruitfully started discussing is the scanning of content on your own phone. Secondly - the correlation between holding known CP and child molestation IS, sadly, high.
