it is weird apple is even interested in doing this as they have no reason to get into this topic to begin with as a technology company. It seems like they have been contacted from the government and agreed to something. why else would they get involved in something they have no right to be involve with...
The question is, what's that actual reason? And is CP the actual reason, or is it just a ruse to have such system in place?
And remember that this affects everyone in the world as the system is baked into iOS itself. Any enterprises and high level politicians should probably be concerned if they use iPhones.
Very intriguing. Again, it begs the question on why Apple is so Gung Ho in implementing a mass scnani g system on all iPhones worldwide. Why go such length when their own platform is not significantly linked to the issue itself?
So you have finally confirmed that you do work for AppleGoodbye.

Actually this is a reference to something Apple said. Might want to do some more research before you assume
Yes this is what I expect them to do, obviously they feel strongly about csam and have put a lot of work in to it and I’ll support that as long as the Code remains on their server…. As far as the apology guarantee thing though, I’m not sure they will do that although I need them to….. I’m with you that it’s hard to understand why they thought this was ok, perhaps one day inter department emails will emerge like they did in the epic case that will shine some light on it….. until then we will probably remain in the dark
Don't know if this is a ruse, but this didn't happen suddenly and has been in the planning and implementation stages for a while. As to the root cause of the trigger, we likely will never know, but I don't think Apple took it upon themselves to implement a system such as this.
Not trying to minimize/trivialize the existence of CSAM or the child abuse/exploitation problem in any way, but I’d be genuinely interested to know how many of these reports of “apparent child sexual abuse material” (what the linked report says the numbers are) turn out to be actual, verified CSAM. And of those, how many involve photographs or similar images (what Apple is focusing on). When I look at some of the entities reporting on this list, I wonder what constitutes CSAM in the report vs. just pictures.
As does every other major operating system. Even your local library does this with books. It’s called Indexing.
I've been looking at a Microsoft Surface and replacing Windows with Pop!_OS.
Amazing that you don’t get what he’s saying. In reference to your article
great comeback. almost a repeat of what I posted.
See. This is where you need to mature. You are arguing, not debating, with someone but instead of using factual statements in posts, you make up your own. I quoted what a person said…”child safety crap” but you go on to guess that I need apple to parent for me. I never said that. You can’t just make stuff up to fit your argument.
The biggest factor is the intent behind features. Being able to search your library for cars is helpful. Detecting and reporting CSAM is looking to get people in trouble. Unlike Google, the way most Apple software is developed shows that the people designing it actually use it themselves
Yeah it would seem many who pretend not to even understand the debate are just either Apple fan boys or are so far down the cancel culture road they have lost the ability to think at all, it’s all related , you almost can predict their stance on other things by the way they have responded to this issue. Sad but true
