Now they know to be quieter about this. It will be a quiet line item in an upcoming dot release. And not enough people will fuss (eventually).

I have a feeling it already came in 15.2. They are scanning texts for “nudity” in images. Not that they are the same thing. Or being used in the same way. But I have a feeling CSAM scanning just needs it’s flag turned on to work.

Thank you for your “feelings”. Except your feelings have no basis in reality. Why would you blame a company for something that they clearly haven’t done?

Well, their gonna push it at some point. Do you think they’ll tell you when they do, given the backlash.

Tell you what, put up 20k USD and I’ll go through the formal process of verifying binaries and whatnot. Otherwise, I think my “feeling” still contributes to the discussion. I don’t need to put in 200 hours to prove something I’m not misrepresenting as fact.

CSAM scanning will come. Apple probably won’t tell you.

I see where you're coming from, but Apple brought this on themselves by annoucing this invasive spyware garbage. This is what you get when you undermine your user's trust.
