Right, and what in there suggests to you that Apple can view an image after a sufficient number of images match? I see the opposite: "Apple can’t access metadata or visual derivatives for matched CSAM images until a threshold of matches is exceeded for an iCloud Photos account." That suggests that Apple can't access the actual matched CSAM images at all. > You should also point out that the NCMEC themselves are not law enforcment. I don't think the distinction is relevant. The point is that they will get passed on for enforcement purposes, and at that point, innocent parties will find themselves raided and their devices seized without any human actually manually verifying that it is CSAM first.
