We’re you consulted on how google implemented it server side with google photos? You likely didn’t know!
Only one company chose transparency here.

I doubt it. It will be quietly implemented. If a techie digs in far enough with RE to prove it, general society will treat them like they wear a tinfoil hat.
What a load of BS. Apple told us it was going to happen, and then quietly canned it when there was backlash. There was no intention of "consultation" or "getting feedback" at all.
So instead they will just continue to scan your photos server-side.
Yep, and because of that we are not getting E2E services (Photos, backup), which would have been possible with this new technology.
The fact that they went so hard for the feature without really considering how people felt about the invasion is important.
