Mark Zuckerberg Wants Your Naked Pictures

Hey, it worked for getting everyone to upload everything else:

Facebook is asking users to send the company their nude photos in an effort to tackle revenge porn, in an attempt to give some control back to victims of this type of abuse.

Individuals who have shared intimate, nude or sexual images with partners and are worried that the partner (or ex-partner) might distribute them without their consent can use Messenger to send the images to be “hashed”. This means that the company converts the image into a unique digital fingerprint that can be used to identify and block any attempts to re-upload that same image.

Facebook is piloting the technology in Australia in partnership with a government agency headed up by the e-safety commissioner, Julia Inman Grant, who told ABC it would allow victims of “image-based abuse” to take action before pictures were posted to Facebook, Instagram or Messenger.

You wonder, could people really be this stupid? Give Facebook an entire database of their most embarrassing photos, searchable no less?

But stop and think about the intel guys in the 90’s, as computers came online, and they tried to figure out how they could use data to unravel people’s social networks. Using phone calls were obvious. Photograph the mail and put it through OCR. Credit card bills for people who shopped together. Banking transfers, purchases on one credit card shipped to another address, school records, work records, and on and on.

Then one guy deep in the intel machinery probably proposed creating “social media websites,” where people could upload every detail of their lives, and link themselves to their friends. All they had to do is put the idea of such a website out there and let a bunch of coders create versions of it, and then promote the one run by the most easily intimidatable/controlled guy. My guess is the 6′ 4″ 240 lb Winklevoss twins never had a chance compared to the puny, anxiety-driven Zuckerberg.

Once that was established, I’ll bet nobody could believe how well it worked. One site, and people upload everything to it themselves.

Once they saw that, the idea of offering to protect people against the revelations of their most embarrassing stuff, if only they will upload it first, is just a natural outgrowth of the idea.

Tell others about r/K Theory, because it is a secret you should want other people to upload

What if someone uniquely crops a photo? Hash shouldn’t work then, should it? Unless the FB software is doing more than just hashing- in which case photos should be recoverable. You could try just having a one pixel image hashed, for each 256 color and see what that does. Would it stop every picture (even normal ones) from being uploaded across the entire platform? I feel this must be pretty basic CS stuff, right?. It may be too easy to gain insight into how coding would work for Facebook’s program, or of course to verify that they’re storing the photos in another way, which of course, would make them recoverable. I’ve got no significant CS background, but alot of math so it seems fishy to me.

Anyways- the CIA is still using Facebook to gain intel? That’s gotta be low level stuff. Wouldn’t it be an unspoken intel rule that any source or method goes stale after a while? Wouldn’t wasting analyst time (and billable hours) looking at peon stuff be a massive waste of resources? Shouldn’t the spooks be trying to catch, you know, terrorists? Maybe these guys just aren’t that creative anymore, what with the EEOC and all.

Expect alot of blackmail BTC headed to India in the not too distant future, because there really are people that are this dumb.
