    so they got mad because he reported it to an agency that actually fights csam instead of them so they can sweep it under the rug?

      They didn’t get mad, they didn’t even know THAT he reported it, and they have no reason or incentive to swipe it under the rug, because they have no connection to the data set. Did you even read my comment ?

      I hate Alphabet as much as the next person, but this feels like you’re just trying to find any excuse to hate on them, even if it’s basically a made up reason.

        they obviously did if they banned him for it; and if they’re training on csam and refuse to do anything about it then yeah they have a connection to it.

          Also, the data set wasn’t hosted, created, or explicitly used by Google in any way.

          It was a common data set used in various academic papers on training nudity detectors.

          Did you seriously just read the headline, guess what happened, and are now arguing based on that guess that I, who actually read the article, am wrong about it’s content ? Because that’s sure what it feels like reading your comments…

          So you didn’t read my comment then did you ?

          He got banned because Google’s automated monitoring system, entirely correctly, detected that the content he unzipped contained CSAM. It wasn’t even a manual decision to ban him.

          His ban had literally nothing whatsoever to do with the fact that the CSAM was part of an AI training data set.
