I didn't know Tineye could tell if an image was violent or not.
The existing systems work for copyright purposes, finding a similar match.
This works to some extent currently, and can handle recompression,
scaling, etc...
It falls apart when an adversary wants to get around it however.
But for the case that this legislation is targeting, i.e. taking down
violent video, fingerprinting is useless.
It's brand new content - completely impossible to detect in advance.
You can only remove the content after it's been distributed for quite
some time, not pre-emptively which is what the politicians want.

Given that a CRC changes if you modify any bit of the file, and
common CRC
implementations have a space of either 16 or 32 bits (65,536 and
~4 billion
possible values, respectively), "insufficient" doesn't even begin to
describe such a scheme.

Once again with this magical "figerprinting" scheme. Nothing like
what
you're describing actually exists. Further, there's no point in each
company coming up with their own scheme for calculating this magical
fingerprint, because if the eSecurity Director wants to say "take down
everything like this fingerprint" they have to use the *same*
scheme to come
up with the same fingerprint.

It won't work in *any* case.

Yes, I think that is quite evident.
