aral, 8 months ago Glad to hear Apple has killed its plans to implement privacy-destroying on-device scan and snitch into its devices (although it will make autocrats like Erdoğan unhappy to hear it because they likely had plans for it). https://www.wired.com/story/apple-csam-scanning-heat-initiative-letter/ Here’s what I wrote about it at the time: https://ar.al/2021/08/08/apple-is-trying-to-redefine-what-it-means-to-violate-your-privacy-we-must-not-let-it/ Remember that end-to-end encryption is moot if the ends are already compromised. #apple #privacy #security #encryption #e2ee #humanRights
