This device is your smartphone. It can already watch and listen everything you do. It can already read and write everything that's inside because that's how an operating system works. The fact that it can now scan for CP makes zero difference privacy wise.
If you don't trust your smartphone to do what they advertise, you don't use one.
If you believe Apple can make the iPhone send data to them or the governments without your consent and without even telling you, you shouldn't use Apple software in the first place because you'd have no reason to believe that such a feature hasn't already been implemented.
Your device scanning its content is not a breach of privacy until that information is send without your consent. Wether it is for malware or for child porn. Claiming that this is a slippery slope is like claiming that building a bridge is a slippery slope as the worker could place a bomb inside anytime.
