Apple plans to scan US iPhones for child abuse imagery
I really don't see how this is going to end well, there could be perfectly innocent photos on someone's phone of their own children doing perfectly normal things that kids do. Like a kid running butt naked around the house, or a photo of something like a rash that is sent to a nurse friend for advice on what it is etc.I'm all for protecting children from being abused, but how are they going to filter what is normal and what is abuse without human intervention? And at that point isn't that a vast invasion of privacy to the perfectly innocent? It's different if it's online because that puts it in the public realm or on devices/servers owned by Apple, etc.
