I admit that I have not done enough research to have a strong opinion on this, but why is Apple taking this on themselves? As far as I can see, this outrage is because of "scanning on iPhone" that is wildly out of user's control. Why can't Apple be like others and say we scan the shit out of what you upload to iCloud(and it is in our Terms and Conditions to use iCloud)?
Almost all tech people know that iCloud (or its backups) are not encrypted, so they can decrypt it as they wish.. and those among us that are privacy conscious can comfortable turn iCloud OFF(or not sign up for one) and use the iPhone as a simple private device?
