&gt;The second CyberTip stated that Synchronoss “had viewed the entire contents” of the second image, which “contained the lascivious exhibition of a ‘pre-pubescent’ minor.” In fact, Lawshe alleges, those statements were false, and the individuals in both images “were easily identifiable as adults by the barest of review.”<p>This is one of the concerns I have with these kinds of laws. It&#x27;s starts with a hash flagging something and then goes all the way to some poor dude being arrested.<p>Even if a hash means someone looks at legal porn, you don&#x27;t know the ages of those involved and people will very much interpret images differently.<p>I work with computers, I enjoy making them do things, but this kind of things with the false positives being potentially so damaging, no way. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;xkcd.com&#x2F;2030&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;xkcd.com&#x2F;2030&#x2F;</a>
