      That’s gonna be a shit load of dick pics. At least AI will be able to create a really accurate dick. The future is now.

      From the sounds of it, Apple is doing some seriously good privacy preserving work: homomorphic encryption and differential privacy are gold standards for privacy preserving data analysis.

      Soon they will be editing our photos just like they have edited movies.

      “In a way, this is even less private than the CSAM scanning that Apple abandoned, because it applies to non-iCloud photos and uploads information about all photos, not just ones with suspicious neural hashes. On the other hand, your data supposedly—if their are no design flaws or bugs—remains encrypted and is not linked to your account or IP address.”

      4 months ago I was getting downvoted to crap by every mediocre ass “open source programmer” on this sub when I shared my skepticism about Apple’s “Private Secure Cloud”. Most of these idiots have no clue about how much of a smokescreen it is. Apple is doing the SAME sh*t as Meta, MSFT and Google – there’s nothing more “private” here than any other company’s. People need to really learn some tech before commenting on THE tech sub.

      Doesn’t everyone? How do you think you can search for specific people or even pets in your android/ios phones?

      This image search feature has been out for a long time. Roughly the time they said they wouldn’t scan images for abuse material I could search by subject matter or text within a photo. It’s actually very useful if you’re disorganized like me.

      If you think any of these BIG tech companies aren’t using ALL of your data for any business venture possible you’re living in a fantasy

      I think Apple made the right call here. The overwhelming majority of people aren’t going to want to turn this feature off and are going to be fine, or oblivious to the steps Apple took in regards to privacy here.

      We’re already getting bombarded by permission requests and at some point, the line should be drawn in regards to when a feature means surrendering privacy and thus permission is requested versus providing a reasonable amount of having people opt-out if they want.

      This puts the onus on those who are very serious about privacy protection to read the update notes and disable features they don’t want, but at some point, that’s just making things easier for more people overall and not confusing people (novices) by bombarding them into thinking they need to just agree to everything.

      People that concerned about privacy to not want what Apple enabled here should be reading the updates notes and going through new features anyway.
