“In 2020, the Irish police received 4,192 reports from NCMEC. Of those, only 852 (20.3%) were confirmed as actual CSAM. Only 9.7% of the reports were deemed to be “actionable.””
This is the third run at EARN IT. It hands “best practices” to an unelected commission stacked with police, then strips nearly 30-year-old legal protections from any site that ignores them. The encryption carve-out still leaves room for client-side scanning, which reads your message before it gets encrypted. Four out of five NCMEC reports to Irish police were not CSAM, and Congress wants to feed that pipe every photo you send.
