Agree, better to post this on a crypto platform. People who work in the crypto space seem to find more value in communities outside HN.

I'm not working in the crypto space but know others who are.
Like any quickly developing industry, crypto is changing quickly. That means you can get in on the cutting edge, and stay with it as it becomes mainstream.
The Ethfinance Daily thread on reddit is worth joining and reading daily: https://www.reddit.com/r/ethfinance/
You can also hop on Warpcast, a crypto focused community with a Twitter-like interface.
I recommend diving in with some new project that catches your attention and understand whatever you can. Discord participation is also useful for many projects.

A related question is why did they wait to cancel it until today?
Announcing end-to-end encryption the same day suggests this program was blocking end-to-end encryption from moving forward, too.

Not scanning for CSAM on your own servers isn't a realistic expectation.
What makes it not a realistic expectation? According to other references, the USA cannot compel companies to run scans on their own customers.

Yes! The Creating Sustainable American Mployment (CSAM) Act will create thousands of new jobs too.

Do you have a source for the "not constitutional" bit? I referenced it in a post below and was looking for a source.

" If Apple has a legal obligation to ensure that iCloud does not store CSAM/etc"
My understanding is in the USA companies like Apple cannot be legally obligated to ensure that iCloud does not store CSAM. Something about the US Constitution, but I can't remember what. Apple is legally obligated to report CSAM if they come across it themselves though.
This appears to be the case in Europe as well. But may not always be that way. The EU appears to be working on legislation that can compel cloud providers to scan for CSAM: https://9to5mac.com/2022/05/11/apples-csam-troubles-may-be-b...
Welcome sources on this from others. Last time I dug into this was a year ago.

Fixed:
Your apartment complex decides they don’t want to be party to anything illegal. Just in case, they set up a police precinct in the lobby. They set up hidden cameras in the lobby, the hallway leading to your apartment, and the balcony of your apartment. "All public spaces of course" the crowd consents. And if their AI model detects anything suspicious, they send the video to the detective. Because you aren’t doing anything illegal, you have nothing to worry about, right?

you can also take the opposite meaning from this signal. I haven't posted in 75 days, but a thread about ebay screwing people over was enough to get me to login.

I was permabanned from eBay. My only thought was I linked to the vendor website, maybe HTML links are nonos or something.

Exactly, can you imagine how frustrating that would be?

"Proof of Humanity" is an interesting blockchain based project that aims to solve some of this. Doesn't prove you're not a scammer though.
