Re:The Problem with Perceptual Hashes

I was referring to a "white box" adversarial attack, meaning you can try variations of the input to see how the outcome changes, and then construct an input that will fool the system. That's only possible if you have access to the perceptual hashing model, which you do now since it runs locally.
Of course generating an adversarial image is not the final step, the hacker still need to place it in the victim's account somehow, but it's easier now because the image looks legit.
