  • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 5G and Galaxy Z Flip3 5G announced at Galaxy Unpacked

    Looking forward for the fold 3, since Apple's "Child protection" botched my plans to get an iphone.

  • Fed expansion of Apple's CSAM system barred by 4th Amendment, Corellium exec says

    I'd say China is the far greater worry. 

    If the Chinese government ordered Apple to implement this feature and keep it quiet then Apple would (1) implement this feature and (2) keep it quiet, because Apple needs China vastly more than China needs Apple. 

    Not to be too conspiratorial or anything, but suppose China did order Apple to implement this feature (not just for CSAM, but for everything of interest to CCP), and to keep it quiet. How could Apple alert users without running afoul of the Chinese government? 

    Maybe by doing exactly what they're doing. Announce the feature is being implemented only in the US and only for CSAM, and then let people connect the dots. 
    As a foreigner who lives in China, I believe this will be the case. Every foreigner in China will be in danger.
