I agree with you, but I want to correct you - they are using an image analysis hash, not a cryptographic hash. However it doesn’t change the logic of your argument. They require multiple positive marches, and they also require a visual derivative of the CSAM images to match.

A crypto hash would be looking for specific known CSAM images. Image analysis is error-prone and will lead to problems and false positives. I don't care how good it is, that's actually looking at the users images and making a judgement.

  > A crypto hash would be looking for specific known CSAM images. Image analysis is error-prone and will lead to problems and false positives. The hashes they are using are only looking for specific known images. Frankly, you should look at the technical docs on the mechanism at this point. It’s not the kind of image analysis you think it is.
