so because they say that they wont scan your images, you just trust them? the fact that Apple had planned to is evidence enough that they could and possibly do. again, there is no way to prove that they don't.

do you understand what i'm saying when i say "e2ee is almost meaningless on a closed source app"? you are taking their word on whether they know your private key, or even encrypt your data at all. to encrypt a file properly, use a local opensource program (gpg) before ever letting Apple touch it.

btw, have you heard of the case where a persons picture was flagged as csam, when it was sent to the kids doctor in lockdown? these filters are not perfect, and can ruin someones reputation. any pedophile with even a glint of common sense would avoid proprietry spyware (iCloud) anyway, or at the very least encrypt manually.

again, your privacy is being eroded in the name of "saving the children".

you think apple wouldnt abuse customer data just because of its brand image? thats awfully trusting of a comany which has been proven to scan 'private' icloud images. most of their customers either 1) don't care 2) will believe it's somehow justified 3) will forget soon enough

the great thing about open source is that people can audit it. and for a big project like android (aosp, grapheneos, etc -- as a parallel), people will. any new commits will be analyzed by maintainers. of course its not impossible, but its a lot less likely than anything closed source, where developers are forbidden to disclose any details to the public.

but if youre willing to use siri and icloud despite the privacy concern, that is fine; every solution is a compromise.

e2ee is almost meaningless on a closed source app or system... whats stopping them from sending a copy of your files unencrypted?

closed source operating system. on mobile data there is no way to reliably view/block requests to Apple servers (such as firewall/wireshark). even assuming they dont have some sneaky hardware-level spyware like intel IME...
