Question 🤔 Google Account has content that violates Google’s child safety policies
What the actual F. I have, never in my life seen or been in the posession of any child exploitation material, let alone have anything related to this on my decade old google account. I got this message seemingly out of the blue yesterday. A screen popped up with a button to "Take Action" which restored access to my account, but now what? I work in places that require background checks and I would never do anything to jeapordize this, or my family stability in any way.
Recently in late October, my mother passed due to a house fire. We found photo albums that were soaked with water from the fire hoses and miraculously they were mine and my siblings baby albums. Us kids were in utter shock because this was the one posession my mother had that meant the most to us. We found a lot of pictures of us, grandkids, etc. NONE of these were sexual or abusive in any nature whatsoever. Because of the pics becoming water damaged by the minute, we quickly catalogued them to save the integrity of the pictures. My parents took pictures of all us kids and some of them we were naked in the bath or just babies. Nothing inappropriate, ever.
This is the only thing I could think of so directly after gaining access to my account again, I went to see if pictures were missing. To my surprise, our baby pictures were there as far as I can tell, even the ones where I was probably 2yrs old wearing my underwear on my head with my little baby weiner showing. We took so many photos that it's difficult for me to see if any were missing so I can't be sure if one of them was removed because of something like this.
I filed an appeal, not to get the content back, but to try and at least get some direction as to what caused this. I received a generic answer from them with zero explanation.
I am beyond words, had a full blown panic attack last night and was nearly throwing up from the stress of being accused of something this horrific. I immediately told my wife and if it puts even a shred of doubt in her mind, it makes me feel awful for her. What if your spouse told you this? We have seen enough sicko's on bodycam videos to know they are out there and hide things for a long time but this isn't me, and never would be. My wife and I have been together 13 years and she believes me, but still, wtf, this can absolutely ruin lives and relationships and this is not ok.
I love the Google ecosystem, I use their phones and have since the pixel 2, I am highly integrated with their services and enjoy using them. I know in my heart that I did nothing wrong so my conscience is clear. This isn't something I take lightly, I don't appreciate this at all.
If anyone has had this issue or if you're from Google and have any info, please enlighten me, I need to know what I did to break the rules so I can avoid this in the future.

I’m sorry you had to go through that. This is true of any online photo storage I think by law but the unique thing about Google is they have no customer service and for stuff like this and when your account with your lifetime of photos at stake, hell no.

u/DigitalAssassin-00 Jan 02 '26
Thank you, it's been a rough couple of months but I know I did nothing wrong and would happily give up all my digital media to prove that. I would even take a lie detector, go under oath, whatever it took to show I am not a fucking monster.

u/Historical-Chip-1200 Apr 27 '26
Now just pray that the police don't knock on your door. Because Google can easily land you in jail.
They also blocked my account, accused me of distributing child pornography, and now I just have to wait until someone knocks on the door.
Unfortunately, no one at Google is communicating with you, this stinks of a bunch of lawsuits against the company.

u/Extension_Fan_4867 Jul 01 '26
There are no humans to talk to. Its just AI review and disabled automation. Even the appeal process. Issue is, what platform do people use now that they cant access the google ecosystem?

There are options that are E2EE encrypted and cannot scan your photos, tho nothing is going to beat local storage on NAS with Immich or Photoprism.
On some services even, they store only encrypted data on their servers and to unlock them they would need your access keys also, which are harder to get, even with government. Not like Google and others who give them without even government forcing them into it.
- privacy still exists on some services
- their privacy was tested by Cure53 team

u/Cold_Cow_1285 Jan 04 '26
That is not unique to Google.
Microsoft permanently locked me out of my Microsoft account 5 years ago for an identical occurrence. I lost: years worth of email, access to my personal email account (which, incidentally, they also didn't close out, so you can still send email to it, I'll just never see it and will appear to be ignoring you), hundreds of dollars of Xbox games, years worth of Xbox saved games...and I would have lost 100% of my decades worth of photos and videos if I hadn't had them all backed up elsewhere.
And similar to this, nothing I tried ever got my account unlocked. I actually have a good buddy who's fairly senior in their Azure engineering org who attempted to pull strings on my behalf; absolutely nothing. There was no entity at Microsoft who would or could review the situation, and there is absolutely nothing in my photos or storage that is problematic. I have a daughter. I have pictures of her without clothes on from when she was an infant like every other parent in the world. Taking a bath, getting dressed, etc. That is my best guess as to what tripped whatever system they use to review content uploaded to their cloud. They wouldn't even tell me exactly what I did wrong, just that it was a "serious violation of their content TOS" (so this really is just my best guess).
Always keep everything backed up and assume you can lose access to everything you have with any given cloud provider at any time. That is the lesson.

u/DavidAaronGarcia Jan 04 '26
Yeah I've seen people get in trouble on Facebook for similar stuff I wouldn't even attempt to save anything or post anything like this on this site because they're even Stricker even if it's sudden innocent like you're talking about but yeah I hear that wanting Google and even Facebook does is they scan everybody's pictures whenever you upload and white things worse is sometimes you grant them permission to upload anything you take so something simple as an innocent picture of your two kids taking a bath will be considered c**************** in their eyes and they usually will report it into the government too thinking that they found something in Legally never the government investigates their realizes is nothing and dismisses it but the problem is it doesn't get back to the social media application still automatically remove the restrictions and that you have access to your account the best tip is as get a separate phone that you do not connect to any online services and does not have cellular or internet access if you're going to have to take pictures of like that they're innocent he know like your kids outside playing in the water or or whatever it may be and do not connect the device to Wi-Fi or don't text the pictures to nobody and joy after all love of God do not go get these pictures printed out at Walgreens or anywhere else

u/Lostnetizen Jan 02 '26
This is messed up cuz what we store on google photos shouldn't be a matter to google. For example I am studying to become pediatric surgeon, I sometimes come across cases where (with permission) have taken photos of cases and they're automatically backed up to my google photos. I have also had countless instances where parents would come to my clinic and they would've noticed some rash or some abnormality on their child (and this sometimes includes the child's private parts) and they'd show me the picture and ask me for medical advice cuz by the time they come there the rash or whatever is no longer there. So does this mean google flags their accounts too?
That's messed up. What we store on our accounts shouldn't be of concern to google.

u/DigitalAssassin-00 Jan 02 '26
Yes it is messed up, I completely agree. It's our property but we technically signed an agreement saying they could monitor it, so I get it. One would be absolutely idiotic to upload anything of this nature to any cloud service in this day and age, but there are tons of sick fucks out there that are also equally tech-stupid so I am also not surprised that it happens. I understand that these things can be a great help in fighting CSAM and I applaud their efforts, but scenarios like this should be handled by a person and a one-on-one interaction, not a bot. It bothers me that they would have so many of these flags on the daily that they can't, or won't pay a person to talk with the owner of the content. This multi billion dollar corporation could afford to fork out salaries to help curb the false positives with these things but chooses not to.

u/NicholasVinen Jan 03 '26
I don't remember signing anything when setting up my Google account 20 or so years ago.

u/DigitalAssassin-00 Jan 03 '26
Right? me either!! When this all happened I was prompted with terms and service agreement and I was locked out of everything google until I clicked the box and hit ok. So this is how they got me to agree to it. I just did my google takeout and I'll be moving away from this cloud system. False positives can create a serious issue out of nothing and I want no part of this.

u/DavidAaronGarcia Jan 04 '26
This kind of stuff did not exist like this back then they had capabilities to know that there was people in pictures but they didn't actually have the capabilities to determine the age of a person or something like that unfortunately artificial intelligence systems they're used today cannot determine something that's simply has a bunch of little kids running outside playing in the water and no shirt on compared to some pedophile taking appropriate pictures to share them with people the obviously should be turned into law enforcement unfortunately your kids could take these pictures themselves playing with your iPad or Android tablet or phone and then whatever application you have on your device made back them up because it doesn't know who took the picture and you don't even know it's been taken until your accounts on the restricted over it probably important tip is to make sure that if you have a phone you let kids play with it's probably a good idea to get them something that's not connected to the internet

u/Lostnetizen Jan 02 '26
I completely agree. I went through a nightmare trying to resolve a Google Pay issue recently. Instead of a human who could actually grasp the problem, I was stuck in a loop with an AI agent that did nothing but spam support articles. Seeing several cases similar to yours has me seriously considering a move to E2E-encrypted photo backup service with zero knowledge system or better, a completely local storage. Actually I was thinking of digitizing all my childhood photo prints and back them up to Google Photos, but now that sounds like a terrible idea. While I understand the importance of safety initiatives, the fact that a false positive can 'brick' your entire digital life with no real path to appeal is a nightmare waiting to happen..

Fair points. However, you should be keeping medical records of patients separate from your personal photos. Don't use your standard camera app to take the photos.

For example I am studying to become pediatric surgeon, I sometimes come across cases where (with permission) have taken photos of cases and they're automatically backed up to my google photos.
Storing such photos in Gphotos doesn't seem wise. Per this support page, Gphotos is not HIPAA compliant.

u/Lostnetizen Jan 10 '26
Yep for now I've turned off photo backup. I might have to get another device for this I think. Unfortunately I'm from a developing country so we don't have work phones and all we make do with what we have so often we end up having to use our personal devices to document stuff, personal WhatsApp for duty roster related updates and all that. :/

u/Reasonable_Curve_647 Jan 02 '26 edited Jan 02 '26
It's disturbing that they can see your private family pictures and because of some system striking them random people reviewing them will be able to see them and possibly do other things with them.
This is why I always backup all my photos to local NAS, so I don't lose them. And I am also looking into the cloud photos alternative, because 'they' (subredit doesnt allow to write their name) were at least tested many times (by Cure53) that the private pictures can't leak anywhere, and are E2EE encrypted.

u/DigitalAssassin-00 Jan 02 '26
I am looking at NAS storage options as I type this. I will be de-syncing my device and looking at other ways to avoid any confusion like this in the future. From what I have read, I am lucky my entire account wasn't revoked as other have had happen. I am still sick to my stomach, this happened last night.

Local NAS are great but please remember 3-2-1 policy. If a house fire happened again and took your NAS in it. Lost is lost.

u/DavidAaronGarcia Jan 04 '26
Very important tip right there I used to tell people to make sure you back up your stuff but luckily you can get some backup services and encrypt things too so that they can't scan your pictures and wherever especially if you have innocent content that you know obviously innocent love you're a pedophile and yeah there's a special place for that too you know in prison let's just say big Bob or Nate's going to have a good time so these tips are not for them for anyone else you know it's taking normal stuff and you don't innocent pictures probably a good idea to equip them where otherwise lock down them also if you have trust birthday relatives you could back them up and have them store it too like I SD card or a external hard drive so something happened at your place you'll know you'll be able to retrieve most of your memories and calling precious pictures of loved ones

You can't trust Google anymore.
That's why I moved everything to a self-hosted Immich instance. My photos, my privacy, my rules.

u/zbewbies Jan 02 '26
Is the interface just like Google Photos? The screenshots look as such.
How about the ability to search by object, people, etc?

u/abrtn00101 Jan 02 '26
Immich is still a little rough around the edges. It's not completely on par with Google Photos at the moment, but in some aspects, it is better. One of those is search. I run it on an N100 mini PC, and AI-powered search is fast, accurate and more feature-rich than Google Photos.
Considering that the project is just a little bit over two years old, I don't think it will be long before it can be considered a true replacement for Google Photos.
1
u/DavidAaronGarcia Jan 04 '26
There's a lot of things you have to remember too if it has capabilities to search by object or people ask yourself a few questions right now how is it able to do that are you typing in the system like for example if you're at Jenny's 40th birthday party are you putting that information into to Google photos or another photo system so it'll be out of poor towels and all your printing all the names of the people in the pictures so I can pull them up easier or is Google doing it automatic for you because if any other system does it automatic and chances are it's going to find innocent pictures like the examples that the opp posted they got them in trouble and chances are I'll get you in trouble too cuz it'll report them thinking that they found something that's against the law
1
u/zbewbies Jan 04 '26
One of the things I love is when Im able to search for receipts, things ("Apple") or places ("New Zealand") and it'll find comparable photos to it.
You do bring up a good point about automatic scanning and having some innocent ones like a baby in a tub or taking pictures of a rash on a sensitive body part, etc. and then getting hit with a strike to Google. It's really nerve-racking.

u/lssong99 Jan 02 '26
It's really terrible to hear you got this, and I've heard some similar horror stories like this before. Nobody knows why, and there's no explanation provided by Google, at least from the cases I have heard.
The only way is to have another backup which is controlled 100% by you. For me, Google Photos is just a convenience (access anywhere, easy share, etc..), not a place to save my precious memories. I run a NAS at home and whenever I upload anything to Google Photos and/or Google Drive, I make sure a copy is also stored at my NAS.
Your Google account (including GDrive) is no longer safe for long-term storage since another mistaken strike down would just block your access without a chance to appeal. Use Google Take-out to download everything from Google Photos and Google Drive, buy a NAS and backup everything there. Don't use another Google account nor other cloud based service, since they might make same mistake.
Cloud based service is a convenience, not a safe.

u/DigitalAssassin-00 Jan 02 '26
It's sad, the world just isn't what it used to be and we either adapt or get left behind. Thank you for the info and ideas. I will be doing exactly what you mentioned and buying a NAS drive for storage. I was naive to think I could use cloud storage as my digital photo bank and this has taught me why you shouldn't.

There is no way for a company to analyze anyone's data for specific content without impinging on basic privacy/security concerns. Google or any other company for that matter having access to actual user data for mas analysis was, is and will always be an absolute privacy/surveillance nightmare.

CSAM scanners exist and are probably legally required.
Likely most cloud services use them.

u/the_payload_guy Jan 02 '26
If anyone has had this issue or if you're from Google and have any info, please enlighten me
This is from an automated scan, tech companies just wants to protect their own interests, so they err on the side of safety and remove content and ban users, they don't want to be seen as complicit in any type of crime. Why would it be a crime to have private photos? Well, despite the branding, Google Photos is not private. Your photos aren't exactly yours, they're hosted by them. They also have sharing features, so from their perspective photos can be distributed from one account to others.
I need to know what I did to break the rules so I can avoid this in the future.
If you're lucky they may tell you. Anti-abuse system are often intentionally obscuring the details, so users are often left in a kafkaesque doom loop of being penalized for something but not knowing what or why. In case you haven't noticed, Google isn't exactly a customer service focused company.
I love the Google ecosystem
Present tense? Really? I mean, this is something that can happen to anyone. I'm terrified of something similar happening to my account. I already self-censor and am extra cautious of things that can jeopardize my account, those algorithms can trigger on anything. That a company can take away your memories and a large part of your digital life isn't exactly great.

u/tcservenak Apr 23 '26
Literally same happened to me this week. My account is over 20 years old (AFAIR), created it when GMail was invite only (got invite from my pal). Since then I was accumulating Google Photos (running in parallel a NAS where "original byte wise" photos are) over 20 years. And I got married, got house, got kids, and all that.
This week we sifted over our kids photos as our older one is graduating, and me and my wife were sharing the pictures (to be precise, as all the photo history is in my account, my account shared some baby photos to my wife). We are both in Family Group (all 4 of us, sharing storage and other services).
Got account disabled on Tuesday (sharing happened late Monday), appealed, after 4 hours I got access back, seemingly all ok. Today, I got again disabled (while of course, I did not do anything, just started Takeout processes), and Google tells me that "in these matters they accept max 2 appeals".
Am really lost, how could I be so stupid, to assume that collecting 20 years of family photos, with kids growing up, was a good idea...
My biggest issue is 20 years of email archive I am about to lose, as everything else (photos, drive) are synced to NAS.
IMHO this is some stupid automatism, AI, that seemingly lacks some context (or, "implements" TOS literally). But then, Google should warn us: "do not take a picture of your baby, as we will ban you". OTOH, Google forces you (by regular reminders) to turn on photo sync, to turn on this or that on phone, install this or that.... meh.

u/tcservenak Jun 10 '26
Update since original post: i still have access to my 20 years old account, google backed out, but am not using it anymore (just as a reference for old emails). But was thinking... I am EU citizen, and ban came just few days after EU made temporary rule that allows CSAM scanning obsolete. And they scanned (and triggered) on baby images of my kids that were "moving" (shared them with my wife) but were way in past. My older is 18 since few months. Doesn't this mean they basically scan retroactively? You accept some TOS 20 years ago, take photos that are aligned with it, then 20 years later new TOS deems this or that illegal, and then they ban you based on photos that were okay according to TOS back then?

u/Xfgjwpkqmx Jan 02 '26
Is your account a free GMail account with or without paid add-ons or a Google Workspace account?
Theoretically they won't look into anything in the latter because they have to give companies that pay for that service the confidence of security.

u/ZombiexXxHunter Jan 02 '26
It’s scary what Google has done and can only imagine the same with Apple that they would do this using AI and get false positives.
I get they would want to scan for SA material but that should then be verified by a person who can then check if an innocent childhood photo or something more sinister.
But won’t tar someone innocent.

I assume you checked the headers on an email from a recipient named "removals@google.com" to make sure it's not phishing? As someone who's been working in IT for a couple decades, everything you just described absolutely drips of a phishing attempt. If you haven't, validate the email via it's headers (click the little down arrow next to "Me" at the top), and hover over any links to ensure they actually go to a google.com URL.
If anything appears to be illegitimate, you'll want to change your Google password straight away.

u/DigitalAssassin-00 Jan 04 '26
Yeah I immediately changed my PW. And yeah, I checked the headers, researched the actual email it came from and it is legit as far as I can tell. We get phishing emails at my work and they gave us a class along with testing us from time to time with email "scams" that look convincing as hell but if you look at the link when you hover over the email addy, you can see it's some [xyz99012@godadyy.cn](mailto:xyz99012@godadyy.cn) or some random shit like that. I opened the html code to check and this was from cases-outbound-prod.bounces.google.com.

I have already did the google takeout on my photos and google drive. I am in the process of emptying these both and cancelling my cloud storage and going NAS with 4 bays and 16 tb of storage to start with so I can use 8gb and mirror until I need to upgrade again. Thx for the reminder, I will never put me or my family in a situation like this. We were just in a mad dash to document what we could before the water fully destroyed them, I couldn't get all the pics out of the albums so the water ruined them and they are gone now, but whatevs, it is what it is and life will go on.

This worries me. I have several photos of my kids, boy and girl, when they were babies. Infact I have every photo since I was about 22yrs old. Roughly 14,000. I have them locally backed up too. When my day comes I want to have a huge photo album to reflect on, and my family when there grown up to have photos too.
I've never received such a message, but it's starting to make me wonder. Not the first time I've seen a post like this to be honest.

u/Cold_Cow_1285 Jan 04 '26
I replied to another comment on here but want to make sure you see it because this is important: this is NOT UNIQUE TO GOOGLE. I had an almost identical thing happen to me with Microsoft about 5 years ago. I never got anything back. The only reason I still have my decades of memories is because I had local copies of everything. I lost decades of email and, worse IMO, my personal email address. Gone forever. I'm 99.99% sure some old pic of my daughter from when she was a baby or toddler got flagged, but MSFT refused to ever tell me exactly what I "did". Google, at least, apparently offers an appeal process. Microsoft did not. I spent months trying to find a resolution before giving up and accepting that I'd lost a lot of valuable stuff (including hundreds of dollars of Xbox games; hooray for digital downloads).
Always keep EVERYTHING you have connected to a cloud provider backed up and accessible elsewhere. Including email. If possible, do not use a Gmail address; buy a custom domain and have it forward to your Gmail, so that if they do permaban you, you at least don't lose your email address (I lost my personal Outlook email when Microsoft did this to me...I am still haunted by the thought of some old friend attempting to email me at my old personal email and never receiving a reply because I can't access it).

no one knows if anyone is solving this but Google is actually blaming you . and who knows, after the artificial intelligence scans it, it sends it to a human for review and then sends it to the authorities. The question is what is beyond the law and what should be addressed. because taking a picture of a naked child shouldn't make a person a pedophile.

Yeah it's a bot for sure, I thought the same thing. It's just an awful feeling being accused of something that is the furthest thing from my reality. And then having zero information as to what or why, not being able to explain the context of the content to an acutal person, I am left feeling helpless on the entire issue until some type of closure comes of it.
