I do FOSS as well, but I'd rather people have fun punting the stalebot than just keep repeating "this issue still exists". I will probably get a chuckle out of it.
Note that the script I posted is not transmitting the images to the AI Horde.
Also keep in mind this tool is fully automated and catches a lot of false positives (due to the nature of the scan, it couldn't be otherwise). So one could argue it's a generic filtering operation, not an explicit knowledge of CSAM hosting. But IANAL of course.
This is unlike cloudflare or other services which compare with known CSAM.
EDIT: That is to mean, if you use this tool to forward these images to the govt, they are going to come after you for spamming them with garbage
Oh it did? I had tried to use it like 5 years ago. I guess it was too technical to really take off
