Yeah. I’m kind of surprised no one else is really concerned about that. The legal ramifications of hosting a service like this are no joke.
Do you also think the government should be reading everyone’s mail? Should they be scanning every device capable of storing data ever shipped?
Of course not, but that doesn’t have anything to do with this.
How? The only way to prevent the site or the postal service from potentially being used for sending CSAM is indiscriminate surveillance.
This project is not analogous to the postal service.
The postal service is absolutely necessary for a contemporary economy. As such you do bear the risk that it may be used for nefarious purposes but in the event the service does discover contraband, it’s not anonymous in that the recipient can be identified.
Offering anonymity as a service means providing safe harbor for users with unethical or immoral intent.
Everyone needs secure data storage, but anonymity is a whole other thing.
