I would just read the document explaining how this works (see "Matching-Database Setup"): https://www.apple.com/child-safety/pdf/CSAM_Detection_Techni...

At no point is anyone besides Apple able to view any NeuralHash hashes from the CSAM database. You can verify the database is the same on all iPhones, but you are not able to look at any of the hashes.

Right, but perhaps I'm not understanding what the complaint is here.

Is the issue that you want to take a given photo that you believe the CCP or whomever is scanning for, compute a NeuralHash, and then see if that's in the db? Or are you wanting to see if your db is different from other phone's db's? Because I think the later is the one that most people are concerned about.
