Doesn’t instagram claim messages are e2e encrypted? How can this work without them having access to all messages?
On device image recognition?
They aren’t E2EE by default. You have to enable it manually.
Ah okay, thanks, I don’t use Instagram.
It is all closed-source anyway, so would not count on this “e2e”.
End to end is exactly what it says. It’s decrypted at both ends.
So… they can identify when someone in a conversation is a minor. And they can identify when nudes are being sent. But when these two are combined, they figure just blurring the image is the appropriate solution?
Perhaps to avoid false positives? I think it’s telling the minor, “hey, this might be a dick. Open only if you trust the person”.
Wouldn’t not permitting minors to use the service at all make this issue moot?
They’re already lying to get passed the 13 year requirement so I doubt it would make any difference.
Yeah, this is definitely gonna work, as if I haven’t been over 18 years old since I was 12 years old, according to every birthdate question ever.
I am 15 and 24 on Insta 😅
Can the senders be sent to jail as well?
why only to minors

what? is insta allowing nudes Ö
What about images sent from Japan? Aren’t they all pixelated by default? /s
Did anyone ask for this feature? Are you telling me that when a kid receives a photo blurred out in IG, shim is just going move on and be like ‘gee I’m just going to have to wait’. They have to have a phone number and email address to set up the account right??!!
Daddy, what’s noodity? Oh! So peepee pictures is nudity? How come I can’t see all the peepee in my phone?
Anyway, to prevent this conversation, maybe labele the images “content not appropriate or not allowed”. It works for mastodon. We literally can’t see a tit or dick unless we double click on the fussy image. So why only minors? Just add a switch for everyone.
