That’s not how csam reporting works at all. You aren’t punished for csam being on your server, as long as you do something about it. You can easily set up cloudflare to block and report csam to the NCMEC (not the FBI) and it will all be handled automatically.

Maybe a judge would see it that way, but FBI agents aren't required to act like judges.

The fbi literally only investigates if the ncmec tells them to.
