Yes, it is a defect. For many reasons - it's anti-user: a device spying on you and reporting back to a centralized server is a bad look - it's a slippery slope: talking about releasing this caused them to get requests from governments to consider including "dissident" information - it's prone to abuse: within days, the hashing mechanism they were proposing was reverse engineered and false positives were embedded in innocent images - it assumes guilt across the population: what happened to innocent by default? and yes, csam is a huge problem. And btw, apple DOES currently scan for it- if you share an album (and thus decrypt it), it is scanned for CSAM. |
