Unfortunately, we're in a bit of an echo chamber here. The average person is either unaware of these types of issues, doesn't care, or can be easily swayed with "think of the children"-type arguments.

There's going to be absolutely no oversight or transparency into occasions when an image is removed from a device. Nobody will ever know when a non-CSAM image is accidentally pulled back from a device. All the public will ever see are headlines to the tune of "CSAM scanning system catches bad person once again".

This is a really awful path that we're going down, and this is absolutely going to get abused by regimes around the world.
