They’re very unhappy they can’t read everyone’s messages, and if you don’t want to show them your message it’s because you don’t want to protect children. They were so very close to protecting all children, everywhere always, but Meta just threw a whole wrench in the works.

Okay, but how many actual criminals are getting convicted with the help of your work? Their focus on the number of suspects rather than convictions makes me think that they were never doing anything useful with the information Facebook provided them.
