CSAM is NOT a hard problem. You solve it with police work. That's how it always gets solved.

You don't solve CSAM with scanners. You don't solve CSAM with legislation. You don't solve CSAM by banning encryption.

You solve CSAM by giving money to law enforcement to go after CSAM.

But, see, the entities pushing these laws don't actually care about CSAM.

My dude, I’m sorry to tell you, but the problem usually is law enforcement. For so many things. You try barely training people who already like beating people up and then give them a monopoly on legal violence.

Btw, the reason the cops were invented in Britain was to put down riots by the populace bc they were so poor[1], and in America it was to divide poor whites and poor blacks and turn the poor whites into slave catchers.[2]
