This is almost how the new scanning system works.

  The difference is huge. Apple’s proposed system scans everyone’s(who uses iCloud) photos and reports them to the authorities(with Apple being a proxy). It’s a snitch/God system. On my proposal, all photos on the device are scanned, scan results(hashes) are stored on device but no attempts to pin you down are made. Once there’s a reason to suspect that you might be a criminal, only then the scan results are evaluated by the phone upon the request of the authorities to check on you as part of the investigation. This is blackbox system.
