legally required reporting
repair men and utility types are now legally required to report any other crimes being committed on your property. Your animal looks sick? expect a visit from the spca. Growing pot in your backyard? Here comes the police.

Not a big step to requiring blizard to reporting any other files the government doesn't like...
---
* any thing with "bomb" or "explosives" in it goes to the fbi.
* pictures identified by hash as illegal
* music or video files identified by hash as illegal.
* documents in farsee or other arabic languages

You really are opening the door here.
