You would be amazed what a dog can pick up. Drugs, obviously. Cash is a big one, electronics, invasive plant species, archaeological human remains. If it has an odour of any sort and the dog can be imprinted on it then they will find it. Th

That doesn't make the employees stalinist, does it. The issue is that CSAM is not some sort of nebulous, vague idea. It is pervasive and endemic in online communities and if you have any tool that can facilitate the sharing of images a
