  Its an absolutely awful way of tackling the problem of sexting and cross sharing of nudes.

  Zero chance this won’t misidentify content, be easy to bypass, and massively extended.

  Does anyone seriously believe that the type of content it looks for won’t be expanded in what it searches for, and that it will cover adult devices over time?

  Thats before you look at jt as a way for mass role out of device level identity verification dressed up as age verification.
