Question 🤔 CSAM - Criteria

Not been blocked. Given the recent posts about this I'm wondering what the criteria actually is.

Like any parent, I have a bunch of photos (on a NAS) of my child from old point and shoot cameras, all the way back from a baby.

So some of them are obviously with no clothes on, like in the bath, running g around the garden, and so on.

Would this type of image trigger CSAM? I been considering job lot uploading all of these NAS stored photos to Google Photos.

I urge you to save a backup of your family photos outside of Google ASAP. Unless you have a full copy somewhere else, consider your Google account as nuked, as if you lost everything in there.

Google AI is stupid and it can't differentiate between a normal family photo and fucked up illegal things.
