I'm not sure how photo hosting services doing this for the past 2 decades is related to this when the author of the post explicitly mentions he doesn't use Apple cloud services or products that would trigger such behaviour. This was the OS analysing someone's images, stored locally on their personal computer, and calling back to an API for no discernible reason.

Not sure how you cant understand, apple just moved it from cloud scanning to local scanning. Its a scummy thing to do, but apple was already doing it.
