So you're saying Apple lost your trust for LOOKING into implementing CSAM and then NOT actually doing this, and finally today stating it's not going forward to implementing this?Great news but they lost all my trust with this. I will continue to use local backups on my Mac and keep my photos out of iCloud for good.
They are always listening (hey siri). But if they actually care about what they are hearing is another matter.Really can’t believe they even tested the water with this. But is shows that they listen from time to time.
And by “time to time” I mean 1 second out of every hour.
After extensive consultation with expertsAfter extensive public pressure...
Never should have succumbed to the public feedback! Perhaps a botched introduction but no one else would have done it 'right' like Apple because of the scrutiny they are under.
Yes. That’s all it takes to lose users trust. They have planted the seed of doubt in my and many other end users minds. I’m not going to forget and just blindly take them at their word. If you believe any corporation has your best interests in mind and you think they’re always telling the truth to users, get with the program. Apple probably realized how badly they eroded trust in their otherwise loyal base. All it takes is one slip up for people to lose trust permanently.So you're saying Apple lost your trust for LOOKING into implementing CSAM and then NOT actually doing this, and finally today stating it's not going forward to implementing this?
Seriously?
smh.
Hey Siri processing is done locally. After the wake word Apple sends the data to serversThey are always listening (hey siri). But if they actually care about what they are hearing is another matter.

Why?Good news for all the pedophiles out there.
The only thing that can be deduced for sure is that they care about public backlash.This is great news. I'm glad Apple listened. I was afraid they'll just bury this for so long people will quiet down and then reintroduce it at some point. Apple still has soul and cares about expert/customer opinion.
Why?
Just because Apple doesn't scan for content, doesn't mean law enforcement cannot subpoena/compel access to the content that may be stored on Apple's servers once there is proper legal cause to do so.
They probably understood that you can’t claim privacy is a human right while simultaneously “comb” through the private data of your customers. Just like your landlord cannot inspect your apartment without previously notifying you.After extensive consultation with expertsAfter extensive public pressure...

You can choose to upload to Dropbox instead of uploading to iCloud.If Apple wants to send an olive branch, allow us to choose our own cloud service or encryption before uploading into iCloud.
