Here's one without a paywall.

Not sure what the paywall'd one says, but this one focuses on child
pornography, which makes it harder to argue for a public system.

Other corps are doing this.  Free software generally does not.

The detection algorithm is transported in the form of a pretrained computer
vision model, which opens other concerns too, of course, via its generality
and obscurity.
