Exactly, that’s the scary abuse scenario where people could send a whole load of this stuff to e.g a political enemy.

  What? Why do you think gray blobs would hurt anyone?

    No one is going to send gray blobs, they will be finding legal porn (like pussy close ups, tongue pics, whatever) and then disturbing it to trigger a CSAM hit. The low res derivative will match, perhaps even closely, because pussy closeups look similar to an apple employee when its grayscale 64 by 64 pixels (remember: it's illegal for Apple to transmit CSAM, so it must be so visually degraded to the point where it's arguably not visual). The victim will get raided, be considered a paedophile by their workplace, media, and family, and perhaps even go into jail. The attacker in this case can be users of Pegasus unhappy with a journalist.

      And disturbing it enough to match CSAM would make it obvious it’s been tampered with. And how would the attacker obtain the CSAM hashes they’d need to match?
