All these pro-content scanning organizations keep thinking if they promote their ideas better or spend more money on advertising, they’ll stop getting “outfoxed” by privacy activists or something.

But they’re not being outfoxed. Content scanning is just unpopular.

Every now and the the pro-scanning people manage to bring it into the public consciousness (as they’re trying here) and they’re surprised that the reaction is so negative. “Why don’t you want me to look at all your private photos!???” pic.twitter.com/lJexvNzb7s

This is a fairly strong statement from Blinken on Canada’s allegations re India. Canadian partners have been sending similar messages to India in private, too. Open question as to how far it goes & what impact it has longer term, but they’re not brushing issue under the rug. https://t.co/yHRbgFoI4H
