Coming around to the conclusion that Facebook's plan to combat revenge porn by having you send them your nude photos is both insanely terrible and yet also possibly the best practical solution at the moment.

They do seem to be contemplating just hashing it, right? Eg could message it to oneself to get the hash lodged.

Right, I don't think they have to hold the image itself. The problem is that current imagine hashing algorithms are proprietary and fragile (they depend on secrecy)

I still don't understand why the image review can't come on the back end. Or many details / guarantees about who wil won't be hired to review.

I don't know when FB plans to do the human review, but it could in principle be done on the back end only after a hash match is found. The hard problem is the hash alg is secret.

Latency. Goal is to stop the initial exchange of the image. Figuring it out ten minutes later is too late for the victim.

Do you have a high-priority "report extortion" function on messenger? Ideal would be low latency from threatening msg to cops at front door.
