Look at some of the cases in the news--the tech giants are more interested in ensuring that bad guys don't use their systems than in justice.
Remember that case not too long ago with a telehealth appointment, they sent a picture of something on their 2? year old's penis to the doc, asking if it was an issue. The police cleared him, but he's forever guilty in Google's eyes.
- astrange 3y agoGoogle was not required to implement that the way they did, which is basically a server-side scanning policy of having contractors look at your nudes if you put them on your cloud drive. NCMEC may approve of it, sure, but another aspect of their not being a government agency is that you don't have to listen to them.
- tuhriel 3y agoProblem is, as they are not a goverment agency and don't really see you as customer (more like a product) you have almost no avenue to get your account reinstated... And as there are some people (and even companies) who rely on google services and their account there it can really shoot you in the knee
- astrange 3y ago"Not being a government agency" was about NCMEC, not Google.
