Am I the only one to think it's rather strange that you get redirected to csam.be when logging in to a Belgian government website using your electronic ID? Really, didn't they bother to do a quick Google search to see what CSAM stands for?

I think this choice of acronym predates the widespread use of the CSAM acronym when referring to CP. I don't know what it stands for either but I've always thought it was a play on words since in French, it sounds the same as "sesame" (sésame) which is the password to open the cave in Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves, and is used as an expression to designate an object that grant you access to something. But I have nothing to back this up.

Funny enough, in the Call of Duty games the reward coins are Call of Duty Points and are gold coins with CP on them. Makes me chuckle every time they pop up.
