If they can 'look' for it, they can plant it.
Yep, just waiting for them to start planting CP on smart phones of the enemies of the USSA State and then haul them off to prison.
Opening the flood gates to Linux (not Google) phones to take over the phone markets to enable freedom from bullshit surveillance from Big Tech.
It always starts in the name of security, then in the name of safety, then it comes in the form of censorship, then in authoritarian control. Communism is coming to America.
Fuck Apple.
Amen to linux phones!
I wouldn't do this but it would be funny if someone got a iPhone and then stored a bunch of images from glorified filth media on it.
Cuties from Netflix LGBT events where they have kids in drag Other filth from movies/cinema or otherwise available media.
Watch Apple flag this as child abuse, then forcing them to investigate.
They'll whitelist their own filth.
Dhu … you may want to take a look at Hunter Biden laptop first guys. You know the one in the evidence locker.
their collection must be running low.
So many issues with this. Glad I don't own an iPhone (I'm aware of issues with them all, tho).
I don't know if this is still done, but when I was a kid there'd be pics taken at bath time when an infant. Imagine all of those being sent. What about live births?
I'd be pissed if my photos were being seen by a human I haven't given permission to see.
Yea, there are pictures of my sister and I in a bubble bath doing bubble hairdos. I never thought of them as porn but to a pervert they would have been. I hate the perverts but many of the laws start off looking like a good cause end up corrupt. How about we just stick with the Constitution.
Gee, what could possibly go wrong...
China owns what? Look how cheap China is? Just about took down the stock market. Look at that dip. Is it real, is it a steal? Or is this how they get all the USA money?
So...lets see how fast Hunter Biden gets locked up......🤔
This is insane.
Hell no, this isn’t about child abuse (I, for one, doubt the pederast perverts who run wild at Apple have any interest in actually stopping pedophilia and child abuse); only the dumbest of the dumb pedophiles would keep anything like that in f’ing iCloud/Apple Photos, and even they wouldn’t once this is rolled out.
No, this it transparently targeted at ultimately keeping tabs on the decent and the peaceable, for when it is decided our lawful activities will become criminal offenses.
I'll have to load my iPhone filled with Apple meme's making fun of the very people whose job it is to look at iPhone images. If the entire population of iPhone users did it, how glorious would it be for them to spend entire days being made fun of by the tech they developed to then be used against them like that.
KEK!
To add to their personal collections most likely.
The real reason: law enforcement agencies and child safety campaigners for more assistance in criminal investigations, including terrorism and child pornography.
