When did it become necessary for big tech companies to act as a law enforcement apparatus of our government!?

Who do you think is funding this shite?

You think Zuckerberg came up with Facebook all on his own?

Is this the fist time tech censorship has targeted the left?
LOL @ anyone thinking this will be used against the left

it will quickly evolve into searching for pictures of guns, american flags, etc.

The government wanted Apple to build in a backdoor that they could use to get into any locked/encrypted phone but Apple refused and said it wasn't possible. The tinfoil hat in me says it's because they didn't want to admit that a backdoor already exists for Apple themselves to get into locked/encrypted phones.

It definitely already exists. There is no way the Chinese government would ever allow Apple to do business in China if they didn't provide the commies access to a backdoor.

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?


I think this is more about previously identified images. Sort of like searching the FBI fingerprint database. So if a certain picture has been found in a previous arrest, that picture has a unique identifier than can be searched for. I don’t think this means they will be looking through every picture of a child anyone takes with their iPhone.

That’s my understanding anyway. Definitely a slippery slope though.

But Apple won’t allow law enforcement access to a terrorist’s iPhone. Figures.

I've believed since that whole fiasco that Apple gave the FBI access almost immediately, but went through the whole court circus as a marketing ploy.

Pick something that everyone agrees is bad—a la child abuse—next use this as a launch pad to invade your personal information. It will start off as child abuse. Then it will slowly but surely transform into more and more government interference.

It feels like dumb phones are the way to go, devolution time. The Amish may have been on to something.

Also, what happens to teens sexting back and forth? Do these boys get the “auto sex offender” status for having naked images of their girlfriends on their phone?

I’m the first person that will gladly watch a child abuser or pedophile have a gruesome death but i also believe that you can’t have things just one way and feeling ok that they just take your pics and give them to law enforcement just cause they can is complete BS.

That’s invasion that I’m just not ok with
