You're not at all touching on my argument. Read my reply to maxk42.

You are missing my argument completely. What I'm saying is that yes, Tolkien may have envisioned Middle Earth as proto-European fantasy, but when you're arguing for "historical accuracy", you can't pick and choose.

by onepunchedman 4y ago
When you say European, except for the fact that Tolkien wrote the story, what part of the show thus far has given you an explicit European feel? Did the Harfoots resemble British subjects, or do the race of men have to be from the European

Do you have any material on this private function?

What does Apple even do in this situation? That media won't match known CSAM, but if you modify childhood images so that its hash matches CSAM, what does Apple do. There are just SO MANY things that can and will go wrong as people try

Jup. As others have pointed out, if Apple were willing to lie about the extent of this system and its inception date, why should we suddenly trust that they won't extend its functionality. They themselves explicitly state that the prog

So that you are able to bypass the manual reviews. It still looks like CSAM, but it isn't.

by onepunchedman 5y ago
Well that depends on the situation. Regardless the sender would be charged if found, but if they were able to get legitimate CSAM on the receiver's phone the receiver could possibly be charged too, or at least investigated. Just the id

Yeh I was talking in hyperbole, but the possible attack vectors this system enables are so powerful I felt it warranted. Under this system you are able to artificially ddos organizations that verify if CP is sent by sending legitimate, low-

Nah that's so 2020, 2021 is all about low resolution legitimate porn being transformed to match CSAM. Get with the times!

by onepunchedman 5y ago
The sender would of course be charged with wasting police efforts, defamation attempts+++. In the case of false positives the receiver of course wouldn't be charged, it's more about the fact that this system can be manipulated wit

Lending your phone to someone for a call, then a quick airdrop. Legitimate-looking emails with buttons. There's probably a list somewhere of proven attack vectors.

I meant * could *. My point is that social engineering is a clear weak link in this system. They can also be sent regular photos whose hash matches the database, or use this repo to transform a regular pornographic photo's hash, making

This is the really scary part. Of course getting someone to download blobs that corrolate to CSAM would be one thing, but downloading regular photos that have nefarious hashes is a trend /pol/ could start in an afternoon.

Also as dannyw pointed out, you don't even have to send CSAM to trigger the system. If they found you you would still be charged, but not with possession of CSAM.
17.
by onepunchedman 5y ago
Most people wouldn't of course. In this scenario you'd get someone to download the CSAM unknowingly. If they have iCloud sync it automatically uploads to iCloud, thereby triggering the system. At that point the authorities will be

Somehow this didn't solidify my trust in Apple! By this standard you can probably mount a half decent defence off "ignorance" if you are even caught sending the colliding material. Add this whole debacle on top of what's

by onepunchedman 5y ago
This is just getting wilder and wilder by the day, how spectacularly this move has backfired. As others have commented, at this point all you need is someone willing to sell you the CSAM hashes on the darknet, and this system is transparent

Ye I've already seen images that look exactly like the ones from that evacuation.

I really hope it won't be another Saigon, the videos coming out of the final days are harrowing. A lot of other countries are also closing their embassies for now, and seem to be more willing to bring home Afghans who've helped. I

Thanks for this! :)

I agree that one should look into what is being proposed and its implementation, but in both these instances backdoors are being introduced. Once backdoors are in place any government can petition access, malicious actors have attack vector

Thanks for the response, I was super confused by this part!

by onepunchedman 5y ago
Can someone please explain to me how this comparison would work? It seems so trivial to alter any image containing CP slightly such that its hash doesn't compare anymore?

by onepunchedman 5y ago
It's the same excuse the EU are currently using to infringe upon its citizens' privacy and require messaging application providers to install backdoors. It's an appeal to emotion, and since we have to assume that these legisl

The language in those scam articles is actually perfect, first time I've seen that.

Wow, the Norwegian on those scam web sites is actually perfect. Never seen that before.
