Ackchyually, apple only wanted to scan photos on your iphone so they can keep them encrypted in the cloud. They want to be compliant with laws, your government (people you never elected and never even seen on TV) constantly evolving to control you. In 5 years Linux distros will have same scan features because it will be new law that outlaw to own a PC without connected surveillance. It just another regulation. Your car already have eCall spyware mic/gps tracker, so you won’t really care. You just be disgruntled about new AI robocalls inside Windows or new build of “voice control first” GNOME desktop on Ubuntu.
