When i hear stuff like this, it always makes me wonder if the material is actual explicit exploitation of a minor, or just gross anime art scraped from 4chan and sketchy image boards.
And also innocent personal pictures of people photographing their kids without thinking of the implications. Dressing at the beach/pool, bath time as a toddler. People don't always think it through. They get uploaded to a cloud service and then scraped for AI that way, is my guess.
remembed when a farther took pictures of his child during covid because the doctor asked for since they were keeping physical visits to a minium because of the pandemic and google's automated systrm flagged it as CSAM and the poor farther lost his gmail and google account which ended up fucking his life because that was his work email and hjs phone number got black listed (google accounts require phone number verification)
Yea that too. I read the article after making that comment wondering if they clarified...
Amazon stated that their detection/moderation has very low tolerance so there was a lot of borderline/false positives in their reports....
In the end though, it seems like all of Amazon's reports were completely inactionable anyways because Amazon couldn't even tell them the source of the scraped images.
