Is it local-only? If so, it has far fewer privacy implications than CSAM scanning.

Yes, local only as far as I understand. But how many additional steps does it take to turn the process into CSAM scanning? It looks really close, even without squinting. Caveat that I have no certain info though.

It’s a different feature that works in an entirely different way. There’s plenty of descriptions of how both features work out there, there’s no need to guess at what they might do.
