Chris, What you're claiming is so absurd that it's no different than claiming your kid took a thousand tests and therefore he has a better grade than a kid who only took ten tests and who got an A on every one of those ten tests. If your kid failed all the thousand tests, while another kid got an A on only ten tests - your claim that the kid with the thousand tests has a better end result just because he took many tests is simply ridiculous. What matters isn't the sheer number of reports. What matters is the number of those reports resulting in convictions. And you do NOT know that information. None of us know it. It's *always* the most important metric when you are weighing harm against privacy of everyone against an attempt to protect the safety of anyone. Since there is no more important metric than the percentage of reports that resulted in convictions, the fact it is missing means they're bullshitting you. It's no different than Apple saying "ten times better" or "lasts longer", or "safe and secure", etc., when there's absolutely nothing to compare to. For all you know, Apple's lower number of reports could have resulted in far greater convictions than Google's/Facebook's far higher report numbers. In general, when someone smart (which I presume people making these claims are) omits the most important detail - they're trying to bullshit us. Prove me wrong. Show all of us the percentage of reports resulting in convictions. HINT: You can't.
