Bwahahahah! They ran like rats! Apple and its d-bag honchos.
What about the pics adult females have sent me?
Do they get to peruse my collection?
How is that not abuse by them?
DAMN! all those great pictures Deleted!
how do we sue Appel?
/s
Guess pictures of one of my great grandsons (9) at the range will get them all pissed off...
They’re scanning for dissent, not child porn.
And they’ve been scanning the images for awhile.
The apple icloud “leak” called “the fappening” was due to them having a lookie loo through your pics and then an insider leaked the images collected.
Let’s be honest here kids: You don’t own your phone, computer, car, money, or house because the government can invade them, seize them, or destroy them anytime they want to with or without a warrant.
Stop pretending that you own things and start asserting your right to own them.
Dang straight I am going to get a google phone they don’t scan anything at all.
If Apple were really series about this, they would demonstrate on Hunter Biden’s laptop ....
Manufacturers and providers can scan your phone for any content anytime they want. And, they can do anything they want with the results. Sure, you may have legal protection from them releasing results of their surveillance, but that doesn't prevent surveillance.
This instance was just a case where Apple was telling us what they were looking for.
Hasn’t Apple refused to cooperate during investigations of Rats in the past?
Apple better wake up or they are going to loose 40% of their customers.
Personal privacy is part of CA Constitution.
They are opening themselves up to a huge class action lawsuit.
I actually miss my old Motorola flip-phone.
It did everything I needed, e.g. to make/take phone calls.
And it was ergonomically pleasant.
Good - I’ve got no problem with them searching for child porn on their services and backup services.
Scanning for “unapproved” data on MY phone is just a dangerous precedent.
I like this idea at least a bit in theory, as pedophiles are a problem not just in this country, but worldwide. The problem is reality. It would be soon subverted to a =lot= of other things. There would also be difficulties of false positives. Also, there are extant photographs out there of a 3 year old Zeugma, sans clothes, asleep on my tricycle. (I was apparently a little nudist)
How would such things be classified? Even if deemed to be harmless, ultimately, possession of same might well place one on a list I’d rather not be a part of.
Speaking of snooping, if I look up (search) someone using my facebook page, and then go to their profile, will they know that I went to their profile.
This I am certain of: Apple knows everything on your phone. I also certain that like all businesses in fascist states they want to get favor with the regime by demonstrating how useful they can be. So sharing all of our personal data with the FIB is a no brainer, except the second they do in a way the public notices it they will have no customers. So hey water drop that it’s just pedophiles they are looking for, you aren’t worried about protecting pedos are you? Then once they get it into the public conscience as a reasonable thing to do it is dissent and right wingers they start flagging for the FIB, guaranteed.
You can’t post the pictures of Hunter Biden (naked with little girls) online or you can be charged with child pornography
I thought this was the company that was ‘unable’ to help law enforcement get into terrorists’ phones because they had no access to their users’ phones, and their built-in security was too good?
They’ll do it without announcing it now.
