>> you bust someone for having child porn, you shouldn't have to keep hosting child porn.
Alternative question: if Google decides I had child porn on my account and deletes it, how can I prove that it wasn't a child porn?
It's my data, and until someone proves in court that the law was broken, how can they delete it on a basis of breaking the law? It would be offensive even if it happened due to human misunderstanding, but getting banned on an account I paid for, because their algorithms are shit -- that's beyond any reason.
- hbn 1y agoFunny example of Google banning account over what they determined to be CSAM. I specifically remember Google banning a father because they detected medical photos of his son that were for his doctor. And then refused to reinstate his account! https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2022/aug/22/google-csam-account-blocked https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2022/aug/22/google-cs...
