Third possibility: Apple is going to E2E encrypt iCloud photos, but the only way the U.S. government will allow it while still complying with CSAM laws is if the photos to be uploaded are scanned on the device.
- fragileone 5y agoThere are no CSAM laws that require this sort of privacy violation, and it would be a gross overstep by any government to mandate it. If they enabled E2EE iCloud after this it'd be just for marketing purposes, because client-side encryption is being circumvented it would render the whole promise of privacy as a lie.
- Terretta 5y ago> client-side encryption is being circumvented Client side encryption of what? A plain photo? That you designate to upload to cloud? At which point it's encrypted, or hash-checked then encrypted. Where's the circumvention?
