Re:Apple defends anti-child abuse imagery tech after claims ... by WA on Wednesday August 18, 2021 @05:21PM (#28227340)
No OP, but yes. I expect that my emails can be read and that my files on a cloud service can be accessed. And I don’t even use Gmail.

I expect that my ISP tracks and stores my DNS resolutions (if I use their DNS) and has a good understanding of the websites I visit.

I expect that an app that I grant access to my contacts uploads as much data as it can to their servers.

I expect WhatsApp and similar apps to collect and upload meta data of my entire photo library such as GPS info the second I give them access.

Hence, I don’t give access. And hence, it’s a problem if there is no opt-out of local file scanning in the future.
