The CCP already runs iCloud themselves in country so this is a bit irrelevant. (Though I think this kind of capitulation to authoritarian countries is wrong, personally: https://zalberico.com/essay/2020/06/13/zoom-in-china.html)

This policy really needs to be compared to the status quo (unencrypted on cloud image scanning). When you compare in transit client side hash checks that allow for on cloud encryption and only occur when using the cloud it's hard to see an argument against it that makes sense given the current setup.

The abuse risk is no higher than the status quo and enabling encryption is a net win.
