Doesn’t instagram claim messages are e2e encrypted? How can this work without them having access to all messages?
On device image recognition?
They aren’t E2EE by default. You have to enable it manually.
Ah okay, thanks, I don’t use Instagram.
It is all closed-source anyway, so would not count on this “e2e”.
End to end is exactly what it says. It’s decrypted at both ends.
If they can detect nudes to blur them out, why not simply not have them sent at all?
But also: Imagine being so ugly, even when you’re not sending nudes it thinks you’re sending nudes.
From an ethical standpoint I would say teenagers should be allowed to send each other nudes, but from a corporate liability standpoint I don’t wanna have anything to do with that.
There’s probably a very good reason most Lemmy instances do not bother with NFSW content.
So… they can identify when someone in a conversation is a minor. And they can identify when nudes are being sent. But when these two are combined, they figure just blurring the image is the appropriate solution?
Perhaps to avoid false positives? I think it’s telling the minor, “hey, this might be a dick. Open only if you trust the person”.
Yeah, this is definitely gonna work, as if I haven’t been over 18 years old since I was 12 years old, according to every birthdate question ever.
According to every site ever I was born on Jan 1, 2000.
Fake age comparison really making me feel old. Mine was Jan 1,1980
Lmfao for real, putting my fake age as born in 2000 would make me younger 🙃
That was well below 18 for most of the time I have used the Internet. People born on that day were toddlers when I started to seriously use the Internet.
I could nowadays enter my real DOB and get through all checks but I usually still pick something in the 1970s or 1980s.
Only since 2018. Before then I was born on 1/1/1990.
If the default date is old enough to get past the prompt, I use that one. If it isn’t, I pick a random year that is. I don’t have to lie unless I want a senior discount or something, but I just don’t want to share my birthdate with any random site or service.
Nice. I just scroll randomly a bit. I think it’s funny getting random birthday wishes throughout the year.
I do the same, but use the real year. I was born a little before your number
I am 15 and 24 on Insta 😅
Wouldn’t not permitting minors to use the service at all make this issue moot?
But that doesn’t make Meta money.
They’re already lying to get passed the 13 year requirement so I doubt it would make any difference.
Can the senders be sent to jail as well?
why only to minors
It’s an option for adults.
should be on by default except trusted users
Great, now our youth will have premature forehead wrinkles from all the squinting they will need to do.
Honestly seems like a healthy feature. Everything is supposedly on-device, so it’s not like the AI police are banning anything, just smartly giving tools and advice to vulnerable people.
“Supposedly”
Right.
Why not just don’t allow minors to use the service?
what? is insta allowing nudes Ö
In case it wasn’t already obvious that they are not encrypting like they said they were…
Did anyone ask for this feature? Are you telling me that when a kid receives a photo blurred out in IG, shim is just going move on and be like ‘gee I’m just going to have to wait’. They have to have a phone number and email address to set up the account right??!!

What about images sent from Japan? Aren’t they all pixelated by default? /s
Daddy, what’s noodity? Oh! So peepee pictures is nudity? How come I can’t see all the peepee in my phone?
Anyway, to prevent this conversation, maybe labele the images “content not appropriate or not allowed”. It works for mastodon. We literally can’t see a tit or dick unless we double click on the fussy image. So why only minors? Just add a switch for everyone.
