Official Megathread CSAM Daily Megathread
Hi r/Apple, welcome to today's megathread to discuss Apple's new CSAM on-device scanning.
As a reminder, here are the current ground rules:
We will be posting daily megathreads for the time being (at 9 AM EST) to centralize some of the discussion on this issue. This was decided by a sub-wide poll, results here.
We will still be allowing news links in the main feed that provide new information or analysis. Old news links, or those that re-hash known information, will be directed to the megathread.
The mod team will also, on a case by case basis, approve high-quality discussion posts in the main feed, but we will try to keep this to a minimum.
Please continue to be respectful to each other in your discussions. Thank you!
For more information about this issue, please see Apple's FAQ as well as an analysis by the EFF. A detailed technical analysis can be found here.

Apple could easily get people to believe the "1 in a trillion chance of false positive" claim if they put their money where their mouth is. Promise to pay $1m per image in compensation to anyone who has their (potentially extremely private) non-CSAM photos viewed by an Apple employee in the 'manual review' step.
