No, I meant true E2E encryption. Unless I'm missing something in your comment.

- pseudalopex 5y agoApple's system allows the middle to decrypt certain images or "visual derivatives" at least. True E2E doesn't.
- spuz 5y agoI'm suggesting that the client-side CSAM scanning technology could allow Apple to turn on true E2E encryption and still satisfy the government's requirement to report on CSAM which as you point out is not something that Apple currently implements.
- pseudalopex 5y agoThe "client side" CSAM detection involves a literal person in the middle examining suspected matches. The combination of that and whatever you think true E2E means isn't E2E by definition.
