Why is that a bad thing? I mean for this one specific purpose
Almost all other cloud services scan when you upload to a server. That is standard practice. What apple is doing is moving the hashing process to your phone. It not only scans photos but scans messages " if under 13, and turned on, wink wink." As the program would need admin permission to run. It is by definition a backdoor.
Gotcha
Ah I see
Because it is fake. They are not scanning for CP. It has been supposedly two years now. Show me one reasonably legitimate article where someone got caught by Apple's algorithm for CP.
You know CP is pervasive. You know commie leftists that buy Apple products are the CPers. Some leftist should have gotten caught and made it in the news by now, right?
Because shit like this NEVER only stays used for that "one specific purpose". It's ALWAYS abused.
All the tools that Facebook, Twitter, and Google use for mass censorship and deplatforming of non-liberals all started out as technology to stop child porn and other legitimate crimes.
Yes I know they’ll use it for everything. I was saying for hunting pedos ALONE it’s not a bad thing.
It’s everything else the program comes with
Even if they were doing it for all the right reasons eventually somebody will come along who couldn’t care less about “the right reasons”
Agreed
Like it's just one purpose? WTF dumbass?
No shit Sherlock. I meant that searching and reporting people sharing kiddie porn is a good thing.
who gave the order and who can change the order given?
