>if you don't want to store pictures in clear on your servers
Reading https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202303 https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202303 , it seems that Apple may encrypt pictures on their servers, but they have the key. The list of what's actually end-to-end encrypted doesn't include photos. So, they may be scanning on your phone, but they can scan on their servers if they wanted to.
- siscia 5y agoI believe the want this update exactly to enable E2E encryption. In this way the can get rid of the keys on their servers and still find pedo pictures.
- thw0rted 5y agoI posted more detail upthread but what I've found suggests that Apple does have a key to decrypt pictures but they claim to use it only to respond to a warrant. (They could of course be lying about that, but I don't believe they are.)
