I really don't get how mildly or not technically educated people cannot comprehend the massive difference between scanning on servers (company property) and scanning on user device (user property). And the next level of madness - scanning with third party non-auditable (due to sensitivity of the material) parameters. I think we collectively are having "frozen mind" moment. Just move along, nothing is happening here. Even worst, comparing the most powerful company with full spy devices ecosystem and mass adoption with GNU and Free software. Apple is worst than every totalitarian government because Apple is the gateway for policing and monitoring. And they don't care. You will comply because they are looking at the numbers and they know that you are have sick minds. Just look at the timeline of events. Public reaction over Pegasus/NSO - Apple mumbles some technical shit, no real response. Weeks after this Apple announces CSAM scanning, cryptography specialist and organizations explode with reaction - Apple sends Federighi to WSJ. After more than 20 days they announce that some states will adopt digital ID as a convenient way to policing. The biggest corporation on the world is becoming a reliable governments partner and people "have nothing to hide". At this point in time I say: You will get what you deserve people.
