Account is not the same as your device

Apple isn't scanning the contents of your device. They are discussing scanning content you upload to iCloud Photos.

So, yes. It's the same.

"Before an image is stored in iCloud Photos, the following on-device matching process is performed for that image against the blinded hash table database."

Apple disagrees with you.

Did you just post a quote proving that only images uploaded to iCloud Photos are scanned while claiming that all images on the device are scanned?
