Child safety group Heat Initiative plans to launch a campaign pressing Apple on child sexual abuse material scanning and user reporting. The company issued a rare, detailed response on Thursday.
I understand why people want privacy and it’s legitimate. As an honest citizen I’d want that too.
But, as a policeman in a country without a dictator, I feel also really frustrated to know that a pedophile or any criminal is able to escape justice because the encryption is good enough.
It’s always difficult to find the right balance. Especially because some governments are corrupts and trying to eliminate political threats.
What about people who keep paper magazines of printed porn? I guess it’s really frustrating how too good a lock and key of an apartment is? We should really outlaw locks and keys that the government can’t open at any moment, with no notice. Search warrants should be unnecessary.
Disregarding whataboutism about much larger problems, specifically here, about something like the church…
And don’t even get me started on how hard it is to have 24x7 cameras installed in every room of every household. It’s so frustrating to not be able to just know what everybody is doing all the time!

How do you know something that’s provably false? Pedophiles who evade justice are not doing careless things that need end to end encryption, like backing up their porn to iCloud. The problem doesn’t start or end with encryption. The policy is entirely about privacy and has nothing to do with protecting children.
I totally agree about privacy, but I can’t agree when some people are thinking every government is trying to do mass surveillance and has evil thoughts.
Online criminality is kind of new and internet can’t just be heaven for criminals.
It’s about finding a right balance between all of these things and remembering that most citizens are honest.
And, despite the fact that some people here just seem to hate the police no matter what, it’s also important to be able to investigate on the web.
One day, these people could be the victim of someone and they would be probably really happy if there was a way to catch these criminals.
That being said I don’t know what the perfect balance is and I’m trying to be open minded about it.
Ah, but as a citizen who doesn’t trust the police or the government even without a dictator. Cops lie all the time, on camera, here. Thankfully everyone sees why this is a gross invasion of privacy.
Would you be in favor of mandatory explosive implants in the brain that can only be activated by police? Consider all the crimes that could be stopped dead on their tracks.

Police cameras, you say?

“Some governments.” Government is corruption. How much varies, but if given leeway they all go the same direction.
That’s you, by the way—the hand of corruption. Respectfully.
