> It's a shame that systems have to be designed to prevent abuse by bad people but at Apple's scale it seems like they should have better answers for the concerns being raised.

Well the obvious response is that these systems don't have to be designed. Child abuse is a convenient red herring to expand surveillance capabilities. Anyone opposing the capability is branded a child molester. This is the oldest trick in the book.

I mean the capability to spy on your kid can easily be used to abuse them. Apple could very well end up making children's lives worse.
