This is why I suspect something shifted with the government. Like they're being forced into doing this somehow.
This was the minimal legal requirement or something.
The whole thing is baffling to me.
- gjsman-1000 5y agoDoes nobody remember the EARN IT Act?
- n8cpdx 5y agoI do remember it, it’s just very weird that Apple hasn’t cited it as a motivation. If they had led with that, we’d be having a conversation about the evildoers in Congress rather than Cupertino.
- heavyset_go 5y ago> This is why I suspect something shifted with the government. Like they're being forced into doing this somehow. Seems like undue speculation. The government cares about far more than just CSAM. They care about terrorism, human and drug trafficking, organized crime, gangs, drug manufacturing, fraud etc. This type of speculation only makes sense if Apple intends to expand their CSAM detection system to detect those other things, as well.
- kilroy123 5y agoI 100% think Apple intends to expand on it. That's why I'm against it.
- heavyset_go 5y agoApple does say something[1] to that effect: > This program is ambitious, and protecting children is an important responsibility. These efforts will evolve and expand over time. [1] https://www.apple.com/child-safety/ https://www.apple.com/child-safety/
