Well the criteria is CSAM?
Do you have any evidence that these systems have been used to imprison someone that wasn't CSAM related?
>Well the criteria is CSAM
Could you confirm that in any way?
A better question is if the government can.
Given that big tech firms keep getting fined for doing stuff like this ("anything 3rd party want with undisclosed criteria"), clearly the answer is "yes, eventually".
No, this is not better question - govts were multiple times caught by hand in cooperating with private companies for surveillance or just breaking the law without any consequences(i.e. germany MITMing jabber.ru hetzner nodes)
