So we know for sure they're not just using PhotoDNA?

Kinda the same question. If they're using PhotoDNA, then that's not really a risk, right? Isn't this technology well understood at this point?
- frenchyatwork 5y agoLooks like you're right. I edited my comment. It looks like there's a couple fairly different changes that are happening: - There's a system to catch CSAM that is either PhotoDNA or something that works similarly. - There's a system to detect novel nudes, and notify parents if their children view them. I think I got these two mixed together.
- rootusrootus 5y ago> I think I got these two mixed together. That's fair. Apple did a shit job of explaining themselves, and it has been compounded by a lot of misinformation (deliberate or not) in response. I'm trying really, really hard to moderate my reaction to this whole mess until I feel like I actually understand what Apple intends to do. I don't make platform jumps lightly.
