How does this threaten your liberty?

Why would the police raid you based on blurry versions of completely legal images? And are you really saying that the images Apple reviews are so blurry that they can’t review them? That seems like a very stupid system. In any case, your sc

Still, why not send actual CSAM then, so that they are actually caught? Getting them into review just causes them inconvenience. Remember, only the flagged images will be reviewed, and only they could ever be sent to law enforcement, so it

That's because people don't understand how technology works. They think this is some kind of new system that gives Apple new access to things. It's not. They access they have here is nothing compared to what they have always

Well yes, spamming your iMessages would be pointless.

That's insane, one would have thought that would have been protected at least since the early 1900s.

Even if that were 100% true, he was blaming all present day “White Americans”, none of whom were in any way involved.

If that’s what you’re worried about, then if people have physical control over your phone they could just upload CSAM to your FB or Google photos from it.

I really don’t understand why americans are so obsessed with “my property”. I guess it’s a cultural thing.

This used to be a comment about how all White Americans should protect Indian heritage. Which they of course should, but he also accused all White people of "ravaging" Indian sites etc.

by Grustaf 5y ago
Very few "White Americans" alive today have ravaged any American Indian sites. Even if you have the deranged notion that people should bear the responsibility for what their ancestors did hundreds of years ago, it's still jus

It's a statistical fact, last time they killed this many was before the war.

100% of the CSAM they scan for is child abuse.
854.
by Grustaf 5y ago
The police will only be involved after their scanner has found 30 matches and Apple’s reviewer has manually concluded that it actually is CSAM, so I don’t see how the police is really relevant? If HOA means home owners association, I don’t

I thought Navalny was better organized than that, given the millions we shower him with and his 50+ staff.

by Grustaf 5y ago
Few large organizations are very efficient about anything related to HR or management. But I'm not sure where you're getting "one month" from.

We are already trying to stop those, so that's some weird sarcasm. But scanning photos is not a very efficient way to stop drug dealers, they don't tend to take photos of their stash I think.

by Grustaf 5y ago
It's not a straw man to say that Apple is scanning for CSAM because they don't want CSAM. It may be naive or wrong, but it's not a "straw man". The stated reason they do it this way is to protect privacy. Presumably

Of course you can have terms of use for things you sell, I don't know why you would think otherwise. In this case it IS linked to iCloud though, as you probably know. Images are only scanned on their way to iCloud, and they won't

I don't know about Soros, but e.g. the Swedish government is supporting him quite heavily. Would you consider Smart Voting to be "interference" if Chinese backed activists promoted it in the US?
861.
by Grustaf 5y ago
How would people would feel if there were Chinese backed apps in the AppStore that were used for tactical voting in the US presidential elections? With the express purpose to aid a specific candidate.

Perhaps they don't want people to use their devices for child abuse? Radical idea I know.

Obviously, since large companies _have_ lots of employees, either their tests aren't crazy hard, or there are lots of people way smarter than you for whom the same tests are manageable.

I got my FAANG job through whiteboard interviews, but I definitely prefer homework, and I think that's a better method. But thanks for the advice.

I'm not trying to optimise hiring, I'm just pointing out that from the developers point of view it's not a big issue.

I don't assume anything, I'm only saying that even if you had to spend 2 weeks to get a job, that's not really anything to complain about. The vast majority of people spend way more than that.
868.
by Grustaf 5y ago
If you already have a job you are very likely not in desperate need of a new job. If you want a higher salary then you probably need to sacrifice something.

10 challenges is like two weeks of work. You probably studied for 3 to 5 years, and hopefully you'll work there for at least 2 years. Two weeks is not much, even if it is tedious.
