IMO this was bound to happen the moment users accepted that they didn't have root on their hardware, and handed the keys to the manufacturer. It's a slippery slope. Apple is as much in control as we are. We are all just sliding down the path set years ago. Today it's scanning your photos. Tomorrow it will periodically turn on the camera, do on device processing to check for child abuse, then only send the recording to FBI if it thinks so. Otherwise the recording will be deleted. Once you cede control over your property, this is bound to happen sooner or later.
