I have another take to this. Twitter is currently being sued (and has lost a motion to dismiss) over the distribution of sexual exploitation material of minors. https://endsexualexploitation.org/articles/court-ruling-twitter-is-one-step-closer-to-being-held-accountable-for-knowing-distribution-of-child-sexual-abuse-material%E2%80%AF/ https://endsexualexploitation.org/articles/court-ruling-twit... I think apple may realize that if this wins, or even goes to discovery, the bigger companies are next. Apple with deep pockets, if they know this kind of stuff is distributed on their platform, may have done some math on their extent of their liability even from a bad press perspective and decided to try to cut it. Sadly this still doesn't change the idea of scanning client devices (Rather than iphoto or icloud) is a big crossing of boundaries, and setting up this mechanism opens it up for exploitation by intelligence agencies via security letters etc in the future.
