Is it just nudes or is it all old photos?

[–] rimjob_rainer@discuss.tchncs.de 41 points 6 months ago (1 children)

The former would be hilarious, it would mean that iOS explicitly classified those images as nudes.

Indeed. But Apple does have the tech to analyze images/videos:

Apple's CSAM detection capability is built solely to detect known CSAM images stored in iCloud Photos that have been identified by experts at NCMEC and other child safety groups.

which means they exported this task to some Indians overaeas.. fuck which is just worse

[–] KillingTimeItself@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 6 months ago

ok so probably not, CSAM detection, specifically modern detection the kind that MS does, is based on image hashes, and how it works is that the law collects and creates the hash sets for these images, and distributes them to tech companies, who can then use them to calculate against hashes of existing photos, and if a match returns, ladies and gentleman, we got em.

It's using hashes, no?
