    Nobody cared it was running on iCloud. People cared it was going to be running on their phones, scanning literally everything they had.

      THIS. I don’t care/I don’t mind companies like Apple or Google using this scanning technology for cloud-based storage services like icloud or google cloud or whatever. But I do not want this creepy surveillance shit on my personal device. Because sure, one day they say that it is used for CSAM. It’s not long before it gets expanded to other stuff like climate crisis protesters/activists or LGBTQ+ content (which need I remind you is illegal in some countries!) or other subjects that the government isn’t a fan of.
