Hash collision in Apple NeuralHash model

I find it very hard to believe that Apple will put literal future of iPhone (just imagine the amount of bad press if one false negative comes out of review process and is reported to the authorities) to "overworked, underpaid overseas subcontractor".

Apple is greedy, ruthless, tone-deaf machine, but I don't think they're stupid.

That’s already how app reviews work.

I think rejecting one of million apps and angering one developer is a bit different than reporting someone about a child pornography/abuse, ruining their life and making a global scandal that can put future iPhone sales in jeopardy.

Barely anyone ever cared about privacy. Convenience, no matter how insignificant, always wins. I will be surprised if this is the last straw that finally gets the masses to care about privacy. In reality there might be a few scandals but at some point no one will care anymore and Apple will remain popular.
