That's incorrect. That's the Apple reviewer. After that, it goes to further review by NCMEC, where it's verified. NCMEC is the only one legally capable of verifying it, fully, and they're the ones that file the police report.

So, to get flagged, you need many hash collisions destined for iCloud. Then, to get reported, some number must get a false positives in the Apple review, and then some number must somehow fail the full review by NCMEC.

I envy your naïveté. My world would be so much less complex with your child-like acceptance.

You’re assuming quite a bit here. I never claimed to have faith in the system, and there could be problems with the review process, but it’s best to talk about how things are, from an informed perspective.
