Open source hardware and software is the only sustainable path forward.

Perhaps that DIY processor fab discussion is worth a re-read.

Everything Sutajio Kosagi puts out is high quality and a futuristic.
I mean what if apples search decides that I am suspicious? Will they unlock my keychain and give all my logins to some police or worse random people somewhere to check my stuff? Very disappointing indeed
I don't believe Apple can unlock your Keychain. It requires your biometric (touch/face) to unlock from the Secure Enclave.
Per the threat model most of the people on here seem to be buying into, Apple can do whatever they want in an iOS update, including sending iCloud Keychain secret keys to a server they control.
The threat model people are buying into here is that Apple can’t do what they want today, but if they deploy this CSAM detector, only then will they be able to do whatever they want.
Wow from your description people here sound like idiots. Sounds like you're pretty frustrated, what's up?
What part makes people sound like idiots?
The threat model is that Apple has been capable of doing whatever they want, and this CSAM detector has demonstrated that Apple will do whatever they want.
Then by that logic, what they want is build a complex and highly narrow mechanism for checking only the photos that are uploaded to iCloud Photo Library for CSAM, and absolutely nothing more.
Fair point. You are right.
