Apple kills plans to scan for CSAM in iCloud
I&#x27;ve followed this for quite some time now, not just Apples implementation of CSAM detection tools but the many other large cloud players including Cloudflare and Google who have had this in place for a number of years.<p>Whilst Apple&#x27;s initial implementation might have been more aggressive than some of the other players. I do think that CSAM detection technology is a good way of being able to detect this type of information. However with all things, there is an opportunity to use it for good and bad.<p>We love using technology to improve our lives, but seem to actively despite using technology to plug the dangerous gaps in these cloud services. The public don&#x27;t mind using cloud services despite terrible CSAM and terrorist content being circulated throughout them undetected, but resist when other technology might try detect it.
