Trusting Apple to not scan my device in the past was easy because as an engineer I know I would speak up if I saw that kind of thing secretly happening, and I know security researchers would speak up if they detected it.
Now Apple will scan the device and we must trust that 3rd parties will not abuse the technology by checking for other kinds of imagery such as memes critical of heads of state.
The proposed change is so much worse than the previous state of things.
- zepto 5y ago> checking for other kinds of imagery such as memes critical of heads of state. Do you live in a country where the head of state wants to check for such memes?
- unityByFreedom 5y agoProbably. You underestimate humans if you don't think any of us will try to squash things that make us look bad.
- zepto 5y agoDoes your state not have protections against such actions?
- unityByFreedom 5y agoIn theory it does. Laws put in place by previous generations do require maintenance to uphold.
- zepto 5y agoThey do indeed.
