Yeah. It might be preferable to draw a line between social media and chat applications.

That way the people who are scared can teach their children to talk on services that are scanned, while people that care for their privacy can opt for private communication.

If it's about pedophiles sharing stuff with each other, they'll never be able to stop that.
