do you realize how snarky you sound?
>you can't be cut off from receiving information from over the internet and also getting information from over the internet from websites.
yes you can you dumb gorilla nigger. A web service sends an HTTP POST request to the CSAM-Buster web service running on localhost on a specific port, perhaps port 8001, and then receives information back without ever touching the internet. This in no way involves touching the internet as the traffic containing CP never leaves the machine or intranet itself.
>you can already ban hashes with current imageboard software and there are hundreds of ways to circumvent said banned hashes
hashes in what sense, your being vague here you double gorilla nigger: do you mean bit-for-bit SHA hashes or are you talking about types of perceptual hashes? If the former, then i'll grant you that, it's rather easy to circumvent. For the latter, while it's possible to circumvent, it requires changing much about the image composition to do so. Ideally, the changes require to circumvent the filter will require so much damage to the image that it's indecipherable as CP.
I plan on doing a pragmatic test of this software on a single board at some point and ban a specific soyjak variant using it to allow 'teens to penetration test the tool (like how can they get around the filter itself intelligently).
>you will never be able to defeat humans who really want to post certain material.
no, you can't, but the goal isn't a 100% satisfaction, the goal is to reduce CP posting. Jannies are always necessary, but reducing the amount of content they have to be exposed to is both good for the site (less to moderate), and good for the mental well being of the janitorial staff.
you seem like a defeatist, unwilling to work towards fixing the problem and rather just throw real humans at it, which is expensive, time consuming, and unsustainable. The system will have some bugs, but the bugs can be fixed, if it's too sensitive, extra checks can be added. The technology this is using comes from Facebook and their threat-exchange program, which is just a centralized implementation of what I am already attempting to do.

>is there a way of making it so similar 'p images (ie can a pedo add one image to his 'p so it can bypass the filter) are filtered out?
Yes, this is the entire point of perceptual hashing. We'll see the tool's effectiveness once I am done with a beta release and deploy it onto a board for testing.

I know this is bait, I know that I shouldn't reply, but for the sake of conversation, and to give some oldteens who remember soot baiting a laugh:
>You Need to have a "zero-knowledge", meaning that we (the several developers) never see any pictures of the kids in question - only their GPS locations
What the fuck does that even mean? A zero-knowledge policy as it applies to where? Development? Administration? What the actual fuck are you talking about.
Also GPS locations obtained how? The only way to obtain GPS location data from a user is through the use of the Geolocation API of the uploader. I believe this requires asking permission from the web-browser itself. So unless 4chan is using some deep exploit, you're bullshitting.
>I would like to recommend you look into using cryptography-based anonymity, rather than IP hiding
sure? The goal is to not store IP addresses of the users, nothing more, nothing less. Using "cryptography-based" anonymity is a loaded term and a half, what are you talking about exactly? Onion routing? TLS? You're using a broad term. If you want to complain about this, go make an issue on the upstream provider and maintainer of jschan: https://gitgud.io/fatchan/jschan
>There must be a way for your system to block newcomers and/or certain categories of users.
I do not wish to implement this yet as the need to do so is not here. Also, 4chan does not implement the first half of this. You are a faggot.
>You need to hire me as a full-time developer, along with my programming associates
why? what qualifications do you have? claiming to be a 4chan developer is "my uncle works at nintendo" tier horseshit. Provide a resume, and if you don't want to post it publicly, provide it to me via my email. In fact, provide proof of incorporation for you and "your team" as well. Otherwise, you're a bullshitter.
>If you do hire us, you will receive no patents and will not have access to the code
>all code is to be given to us as a way to encourage us to take the job
>You need to pay 4chan to host the technology for you, instead of hosting it yourself
>any profits from the project will go to us
>You need to use 4chan's technology.
>We will not "share" technology with other sites that also filter out child pornography
consider suicide you proprietary faggot, this is a FREE SOFTWARE project. It provides source code without any proprietary licensing restriction for use to anyone who receives it for any reason. I also wish for it to be free of charge, and that is why I am putting all code on a public git repo. You clearly do not have any idea of what the goal of this project is: It's to provide small website hosters the ability to clean up CSAM without having to resort to hiring jannies from a manpower pool they don't have. You are a faggot who wants to overtake it to add to the pile of worthless pieces of shit software that are inaccessible for the common man. The world doesn't need another PhotoDNA.
>There should be no limits on the technology, or "safe mode" to restrict it, beyond that which would naturally restrict child pornography
are you retarded? software isn't perfect and will end up having bugs and mistakes. Having a safe mode for any tool is necessary to be able to debug or mitigate problems in software. Adding this arbitrary requirement, i'm assuming as some kind of moral grandstanding, is a sign of total retardation.
>We need to be able to change anything about the system we wish - you cannot modify the code or make it "unhackable," we need to be able to tweak it to our specifications. 4chan needs to be able to customize the system to its own liking - to use your own language, or to run at your own host. There should be no other restrictions placed on our use of the system
Outside of the restrictions in the AGPL, which do not inhibit use in any way, there are none.
>We need the full and final technical rights to the anti-CSAM system, and we need to be able to completely decommission it at any point
If you host it yourself on your own hardware, you'll have this. It's a free software project with a focus on decentralized information exchange.
>The child pornography-filtering technology can only be used on its own
The entire point of this system is decentralization of the distribution of hashes, did you even read the spec? It's based on a well-established set of tools made by facebook for the actual hashing part, and the parts about network distribution are what will require effort. You can already use these tools, and the fact that you don't know this is either a statement to your fraudulent credentials as a 4chan developer or your faggotry that's actively killing 4cuck.
