I think Apple’s ultimate decision on this is the correct one. The world is an ugly place and there’s no silver bullet that solves a problem like CSAM and ensures it can’t be abused.
Wish it weren’t as this likely would have made a huge impact against child abusers, but thankfully degrading every Apple user’s privacy isn’t the only effective way to fight against it.
Right call. Too many rights and freedoms are stifled in the name of “protect the children”. It’s like asking everyone to live in glass houses just in case they are abusing children.
The people committing these crimes will move on to different platforms/technology, but the encroachment of the state will not retreat back.
Detailed explanation: nobody can be trusted with that sort of power.
