Are photos uploaded to iCloud encrypted client-side?
I suggest the answer is in the negative, given the ability to look at them on the web, and the ability to reset your iCloud password using 2FA.
These suggest Apple has a copy of the decryption keys, which I'm happy for them to use to scan files I have stored on their servers, for CSAM, or, within reason, anything.
