The database seems legally murky. First of all, who would want to actually manually verify that there aren't any images in it that shouldn't be? If the public can even request to see it, which I doubt, would you be added to a watch list of potentially dangerous people or destroy your own reputation? Who adds images to it and where do they get those images from?

My point is that we have no way to verify the database wouldn't be abused or mistaken and a lot of that rests on the fact that CSAM is not something people want to have to encounter, ever.
