The EU Regulation to Prevent and Combat Child Sexual Abuse, first published in May 2022, has become the "most criticized law of all time". Here's how to stop it now!
There simply is an agreement that something should be done about the online distribution of CSAM
For the protection of children, it’s essential that nobody makes money by distributing CSAM, because where money is to be made, somebody will do it. This calls for regulations on payment processors to ensure no illegal businesses are served by them.
Fortunately, AI kinda solves this because just like artists can’t sell art anymore if AI spits out more content at practically no cost, neither can CSAM be sold if AI spits it out at practically no cost. As such, the business dries out. And that’s what matters.
There is fundamentally no less criminally insane way to combat the circulation of CSAM? Then the council may have a point after all…
actually i don’t think the council has a point
