It's just a little advertisement:

They didn't post one in Ops.

No. And I don't think CSAM is gone. By demonstrating the capability to the governments, Apple actually created a demand for the technology.

Politico reports that the European Union is planning on announcing a new law requiring tech giants to scan for CSAM. That would leave Apple having to figure out how to comply without reigniting the controversy.

> CSAM was a blatant attempt for breaching user privacy and classification with third party agency hidden criteria.

I feel like there's a good amount of FUD about this, so for anyone who might not know: All online file hosts do CSAM matching against known CSAM images, regardless of the client OS(s) you're using. In Apple's case specifically, matching only happens to images you've uploaded to iCloud Photos.¹

I trust the experts on this.

Apple's Plan to "Think Different" About Encryption Opens a Backdoor to Your Private Life.

Ha! Kill the goose that laid the golden egg.

I remove brand labels from nearly all of my possessions. I don’t watch television and I listen to NPR. Add advertising to my phone?

Hmm. Always wanted to try that e-ink phone, Lite Phone. Prolly have my Motorola Razor in a drawer…
