Yeah but then you’re supporting Apple and google and also certainly being spied on and putting yourself at risk of being flagged as a pedophile.

Yes! Definitely don’t upload any pictures of your young daughter taking a bath or of your own body if you are a teenager. Those are evil and hurt people.

That's not porn though, is it? It's just child. I do agree with you though about posting photos of your child/self.

it's a philosophical question that you might think is an interesting one to discuss with federal law enforcement, but I've heard not so much.

If the picture of your young daughter taking a bath is in the NCMEC database you have much bigger issues than hosting images

yeah, every image hosting service will.

The issue was never that iCloud was scanned, it was that your phone is scanning your photos and that the list was opaque- it's a whole other thing if it's your own device which is supposed to be _yours_ that is spying on you. Potentially for big brother.
