Why do so many people get caught sharing CSAM on FB then?
I remember reading about the CSAM ring the FBI (IIRC) infiltrated and ran for a period of time, that group had strict rules on how to access and share material that, if followed, would have completely protected them but the majority of them were sloppy and got caught. Criminals really aren't that smart by and large. Will this catch the smartest of them? Probably not, but it will catch a good number I'm sure.
All that said, I'm not a fan of these changes, I just dislike arguments that don't hold water against it.
