People here have developed an app that makes it that easy to submit (the app essentially composes the email for you). However, without your full name and tax ID number nothing will happen from the police. As has been pointed out, the system is open to abuse if it became anonymous.

I see no abuse that can't extremely easily be managed. The NSA has been able to use image recognition for dicks since they wiretapped all of Yahoo Video like 20 years ago.

Police are inherently lazy, and incompetent. They should be the ones on the street citing these vehicles in the first place. But instead they rely on citizens to do their job for them. Even then they spend 6-9 months to take action. Good luck training them on American NSA penis detection software!

Police dont design it. Its done by the software, which is written by software engineers.

We dont need the NSA. Nude detections is like a Python module now.

They would need to verify each seemingly correct photo to legitimacy be illegal. I assume if it's not you may be fined. (It might be after a certain number of failures or something to not punish mistakes.) If it's anonymous there is no method available to punish abuse, so the system can easily be clogged.
