CSAM does carry emotional weight. Your entire argument is that since privacy measures are already loose then its okay to make them looser for "the children".

I never argued it doesn't.

Privacy is binary you either have it or you dont and to argue that there exists a "balance" is disingenuous.

That isn't reality. You give up privacy all the time in exchange for things. And even with e2ee you don't "have" privacy guaranteed.

The disingenuousness is the point. You're trying to rationalize with authoritarians, who do not argue in good faith.
