Microsoft PhotoDNA Cloud Service

[jos]

The Microsoft PhotoDNA Cloud Service has been launched, which will help the law enforcement agencies and online businesses to identify illegal images, which includes the images showing sexual abuse of children, from enormous photo libraries uploaded on the internet.

 

Microsoft PhotoDNA was developed by Microsoft in collaboration with Darthmouth College. Since 2009, its on-premise version has been used by various organizations and tech companies including Facebook and Twitter, but to run PhotoDNA, it requires considerable money, time and expertise. It is easy to set up and deploy the new Microsoft PhotoDNA Cloud Service from Microsoft’s Azure platform. Some qualified organizations can use it for free to automatically detect and report the distribution of images showing sexual abuse of children.

 

 

 

Service is good if used for proper cause. But they could screw the competition by marking out compitetor..

A program to make it easier to catch the scumbags that abuse children? Excellent.
