The PCR test is a laboratory technique used to detect specific genetic material, in this case the SRY gene, that reveals the presence of the Y chromosome,
So it seems as though the test will basically be
if y_chromosome:
return Male
else:
return Female
I assume in both XXY and XYY, those would be classified as male under their criteria.
Is there a really a quota on the CSAM detection, or do you mean catbox would only get a free 1GB of storage? No one’s saying that Cloudflare would give away 1 PB of traffic for free, obviously catbox would have to pay for it. Still though, Cloudflare or another CDN adds a lot of value which would be hard to replicate.
At that volume, you need to scale a lot, which is what CDNs are designed to do. Moving 1 PB a month in traffic would be like a sustained upload speed of 3 Gbps for an entire month, which is huge for any ISP, and cost a lot. You’d probably need to divide the traffic going out which means multiple ISP connections, and more machines for redundancy. Probably at that scale, connections are coming from all over the world, so to reduce latency, you’ll need locations in multiple continents to serve quicker. As you can probably tell, this becomes more than just one time purchases and electricity costs.
CDNs have dedicated fiber links between geographic locations and negotiated volume discount rates on bandwidth with other ISPs. From a cost and a reliability perspective, it means you can deliver content for less than hosting it all on your own.
