Yup, and the penalty for an individual subjected to this is horrific (waiting for someone to sue Google or whomever for slander given that harm). The penalty for a company that fails to penalize "child abuse" is much harder. So the end result google is very aggressive in penalties, and interprets CSAM very broadly. We also need to recognize that while child abuse and similar is the angle be pushed here, governments and law enforcement do not actually consider sex crimes high priority unless they get press coverage (this is backed up by tens of thousands of untested rape kits in the US and similar countries, and whenever they're forced by a court to test any a small percentage of those they identify rapists and in some cases serial rapists). You get similar with "stop terrorism" claims: police need to demonstrate that they use the information they already receive before making claims that they need more. Finally, following the UK's IPA laws (to stop "terrorism", etc) it turns out they're mostly used for minor crimes (not picking up dog poop, not paying tv licensing fees, etc)
