Well yes, the more CSAM detection and predator hunting, the better. Task forces and, dare I say it, detection programs with algorithms that may or may not include AI learning, are invaluable to eliminating the actually terrible stuff, anything that can't even be educational.
I believe the Online Safety Act and Chat Control's sections that tie every user's real identity to their online actions is not a solution, because when that data gets leaked and/or abused many innocent lives are in danger. I trust the state very little. I trust unidentified malicious hackers even less.
Leaked data doesn't even need to be dangerous to life. I, like many others, don't have "nothing to hide", but I don't still want my real name next to a list of content I've watched from streaming sites. Also I don't really want my identity tied to this pseudonym, or any other accounts on any platform. There's a crapload of problems and it would be a heaven for scammers if there was no way to stay at least relatively anonymous around the net.
