With all the attention it has been getting I think its only a matter of time before CSAM-SWATing starts to happen on those cloud services. The amount of people who know that scanning is happening just dramatically increased in the past month.

And for all we know it may have already happened and someone is currently rotting in jail who shouldn't be there.

Middle aged dude raided by cops who find CSAM on their cloud accounts, claims that his phone got hacked. Lying sack of shit pedo, of course he'd say that, right?

We've had plenty of time for it to have already happened since various services have been scanning for CSAM for some time.
