> 1. The picture(s) in question mentioned above which got an account shut down and police notified was not a 'child in a bath', it was close ups of a child's genitals
No, the example of Google calling the police on a parent given in the NYT article was because the parent sought medical assistance for their child during lockdown and the doctor requested pictures of the issue the child was having.
This is no more an acceptable reason for Google to report parents to the police for child abuse than taking pictures of your child's first bath, and taking pictures of your child's milestones has long been something that people have done.

These things are not mutually exclusive.
Stop being defensive. It doesn't help you. I am trying to help you by telling you that you are making a shitty argument.

OK. Allow me to tell you that, in my opinion, you are the person making the shitty argument
Your argument that "no one should be taking pictures" of their child's first bath is just cringe-worthy.
Google is to blame for the situation when they call the police over a single false positive from their faulty algorithm, not parents who take pictures of their own children.
Are you even reading what I am writing? I never said that no one should take pictures of their children's first bath -- I said that there is no such thing as a child's first bath, just like there is no such thing as a child's first meal, or a child's first nap, or a child's first bowel movement. They are given baths as infants.
You are obviously either unable or unwilling to parse what I am trying to tell you, and fixated on this notion that you have to be 'right' no matter what even though I am not telling you that you are wrong!
I am at a loss as to what to reply to you with besides I urge you to read things before continuing to respond because otherwise you end up talking around people instead of with them.
