The NSPCC has a dog in the race So have those guardians of our privacy who want to remove encryption from the internet. This seems to be an attack on Apple for not imposing the the iCloud photo-scanning tool. All US-based tech companies are obligated to report all cases of CSAM they detect on their platforms to NCMEC. The Virginia-headquartered organization acts as a clearinghouse for reports of child abuse from around the world, viewing them and sending them to the relevant law enforcement agencies. iMessage is an encrypted messaging service, meaning Apple is unable to see the contents of users’ messages, but so is Meta’s WhatsApp, which made roughly 1.4m reports of suspected CSAM to NCMEC in 2023. I thought that Meta’s WhatsApp was not actually encrypted because if you "flag" a message Meta can then go ahead and read that message. Its not encrypted then! Its is much more fun using groups on Signal. try out the multi phone call between everyone in the group Its hilarious
