I appreciate the privacy concerns, I really do. But please, can we suggest an alternative that still benefits children the way that this will? Imagine being Tim Cook and learning that technology that you control is being used for things that everyone agrees is horrific to children. Would you be able to turn a blind eye in matter of principle? I’m struggling with my opinion on this one because I care so much about the kids this can help. For the first time I’m feeling like the trade off is more than worth it.
- ZekeSulastin 5y agoThat’s why this sort of thing is first used “for the children” (or “to prevent terrorism” back in 2001 or 2015[0]) - because when you argue in favor of privacy you then also implied to support whatever is being used as the impetus. The alternative is to not start scanning your device in the first place and getting the foot in the door, because once it’s open it’s really hard to close.
