This ignores the possibility that the scan results could be collected and uploaded at a later time, possibly obfuscated within the payload of some other benign process. I fully accept that the sum of engineering and thought by Apple is much smarter than either myself or the average security researcher, and in an adversarial situation such as this, it's far from an impossible scenario. Ultimately, with a closed source OS, we will never really know more than what Apple wants us to know.

If you actually consider yourself to be in an "adversarial" relationship with Apple you should not use their products -- they have uncountable opportunities to attack you.
