Printers and scanners have refused to process imagines containing certain patterns of stars for decades and it seems to have worked out OK.
Could you elaborate?
It's quite easy to extrapolate this and in a few steps end up in a boring dystopia. First it's iPhone photos, then it's all iCloud files, that spills into Macs using iCloud, then it's client side reporting of local Mac files, and somewhere along all other Apple hardware I've filled my home with have received equivalent updates and are phoning home to verify that I don't have files or whatever data they can see or hea…

Basically victims of rape don't want imagery of their rape freely distributed as pornography. They consider that a violation of their rights. It's interesting how many users in this thread are instinctively siding with the offenders in this, and not the victims. Presumably because they made it through their…
What would be the result of 'curl'ing back a few random hashes as positives from the database? Do I expect to be handcuffed and searched until it's sorted out? What if my app decides to do this to users? A malicious CSRF request even?

It's also incredibly likely this could be used to send people you don't like to prison by sending their phone innocuous images that look like wrong images to an AI.
It's also also incredibly likely this will evolve into scanning for more than just abuse photos, especially in the hands of governments around the world.
