I'm surprised Twitter didn't implement it earlier (before it was bought and rebranded to X).
Also, is The Times admitting they were in possession of the illegal pictures? Does Freedom of the Press protect against that?
- iAMkenough 23d agoI think they’re saying Elon is in possession of it, and they were able to verify it via file hashing compared against the national database. Are you suggesting the national database maintainers are in possession of illegal pictures and should also have their rights questioned?
- mitxela 23d agoThe national database maintainers are the only people allowed to have the pictures, for the purpose of maintaining the database.
- iAMkenough 22d agoThe only people? What about law enforcement?

- mplanchard 23d agoFrom TFA: > The Times conducted its own scan for child sexual abuse material on X by writing an automated computer program that searched for related terms without displaying the images, which are illegal to view. Links to the images were sent to a Microsoft service that checked whether they were included on lists of known abusive material compiled by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children and other child safety groups. Matches were verified by analysts at the Canadian Center for Child Protection.
- rationalist 23d agoTFA is paywalled and the archive link someone else used didn't work. Thank you for copy-and-pasting how they did it.
- mplanchard 23d agoTry turning off VPN for the archive link? It worked for me, but I had to turn off the VPN
