Urgent: Dana Fried on CSAM and Legal Issues
Urgent! An important issue is bearing down on us.
You may be aware of the recent WaPo story referencing the Stanford Internet Observatory study that flags child abuse material found in the Fediverse. Yes, those behind the study/article may have it in for us, and this may be a "hit piece", however it is a real threat.
@tess has an explainer: https://mastodon.online/@tess@mastodon.social
We need to take this seriously and be proactive before it gets away from us.

@tess We are not without options on how to move forward here. In Dana's thread wakame @wakame suggests an approach: https://tech.lgbt/@wakame/110776075653587845
Other good ideas are out there, but we need to get out out in front of this issue.

So is photoDNA similar to a checksum of the photograph, As each photo is unique then other than the resolution would a photo would have the same checksum. Or does the DNA software account for changes in photo resolution.?
I can take photos on my camera for e-mail etc as 640x480 but the normal resolution is larger than this. I can also resize images using gm mogrify -resize 600x480 image.jpg for example.
I agree we need to take action on CSAM, so more curious about photoDNA, here.
