Apple's Shutting Down This Controversial Feature

1 year ago

Apple is shutting down the feature that scanned all of your photos.
So about a year ago, Apple rolled out a feature that would scan all of your iCloud photos for child sexual abuse material also known as CSAM.
And they got criticized by many privacy & security experts for basically violating everyone's privacy.
Of course, the intention behind the feature was to protect children, but you can see how such a surveillance capability could be abused.
So now they’re scrapping the whole thing & instead focusing it on communication apps.
So for instance, only a photo that you were gonna send to someone would be scanned.
Let me know what you think about this, was it good or was it bad & please follow for more tech news.
