    Was a gay guy here in Sweden who got assaulted and kidnapped by masked police because some American company had found CSAM on his account while crawling through Yahoo email.

    Only it wasn’t CSAM, the photos depicted the man’s 30 year old twinky boyfriend.

    No restitution. No police were punished for assaulting a suspect proved innocent. The man and his boyfriend both were humiliated.

    I’ve no mixed feelings about it. Spying through private data is entirely unforgivable. There are plenty of pedos out there who get caught and nothing happens anyway. They don’t need to violate innocent people’s privacy to do their job.

    Like if the ends justify the means you can end all suffering in the world by just nuking everything. All problems solved.

    Edit: pesos → pedos

      Oh gods now you have me worried. 20 years ago I was a hundred pounds lighter and just a bag of skin holding a skeleton. There are some photos of me on my Google account that skinny. (also in your medical textbooks but anyways) and I also have photos of me now. We look like completely different people.
