So we should sit still and wait while CCTV in every room would be a normal preventive measure against child abuse? No thanks, we will tear down this initiative, and will keep doing that in future. However, you can keep sending your private footage to the police station, if you like doing so.
Four of the top ten posts as of writing is about this issue. I'm glad people are finding something they are interested in to talk about, but at this point this issue is hardly intellectually interesting.
It's like people are being forced to buy an iPhone or something.
I guess a lot of owners of Apple devices are also making use of a lot of their services/features making it hard, or at least inconvenient, costly and time-consuming to switch out i.e. vendor lock-in with open alternatives. This is why it's good to try to avoid this situation occurring in the first place. But that's at odds with how you're 'supposed' to use their devices and ecosystem and you may as well have not chosen Apple in the first place. Most people have already gone 'all-in'. Too bad when they implement something (like this) that could be used to target innocent people at some point in the future. Apple obviously don't intend it to be used in this way. But a bit like the Pegasus debacle with it only targeting criminals, it's obviously a vulnerability waiting to be exploited.
end of story.
