Member when a college football coach in Minnesota got arrested on child porn charges that turned out to be pictures of his very young children taking a bath?

I member.

Guy got his reputation destroyed and effectively lost his coaching position because he was suspended while the proceedings were ongoing, which lasted over one season. Because someone decided that pictures which historically have been very common are all of the sudden child porn.

This is poorly worded. Is it just scanning photos uploaded to icloud (which would be bad enough), or is it all scanning the local storage of iphones? It doesn't seem completely clear.

None of us support child abuse, and etc, but all know this is a slippery slope that goes beyond 'looking for child abuse imagery'.

ETA: I read it as those uploaded to icloud and on iphones.

Terrorist is VERY loosely thrown around these days.

The “I don’t have anything to hide, so I’m not scared” mentality is dumb. It never occurs to people like you that things like this could be misused or lead to a whole new mess of issues.

Wonder what would happen if you shared Apple's proprietary information with others? Surely, they have nothing to hide.

Ironic that Biden is on camera pinching little girls nipples and they won’t do a thing to him, but they want to check everyone else’s phones

Are you under the impression your photos aren’t already being analyzed? shite, each one on an iPhone has the exact coordinates even saved to them

Not like this but it doesn't surprise me. What's funny is the people who think they aren't being monitored or tracked at all.

What if I have a picture of my 3 year old playing in the bath? I’m not worried about me but do you really want some weirdo in California looking at your private pictures and making some type of moral decision?



Yes

I don't abuse kids, but my son is hell on wheels and stays banged up all the time. I'm sure an AI program would see some pictures of him and flag the shite.

This is wrong on so many levels.

Have you ever committed any crimes? I assume you have no issue with the law showing up at any time day or night and tossing your house right? Thing how many people they would catch. I mean if you have nothing to hide.

Stupid motherfrickers like you don't have an inkling of what the constitution stands for.
