    This does still have the potential to be contentious, since it's still scanning (on device) the photos being sent. That means much like before the tech for further erosion of privacy is already implemented, potentially allowing a country to force Apple to scan for particular pictures as they see fit. Yes it's enabled for child accounts only, but it wouldn't be much trouble to enable scanning for anyone, and not much more of a stretch to force them to send a surreptitious notification to a government minion.

    What happens if Jingping tells Apple it has to scan for any photos of Winnie the Pooh? Will Apple still say no under threat of being removed from China? This question that was never really answered before still exists - and Apple's only response is "we won't bend to government demands", with no answer to "even if it's China?".
    Photos library scanning is already happening on our devices. Both Apple and Google offers items and faces recognition in their apps, so it makes no sense to be worried now after years of library scanning.
