Apple's claims on how it will work are also completely unverifiable. What's stopping a government from providing Apple with hashes of any other sort of content they dislike?
And then Apple reviews the account and sees that what was flagged was not CSAM. And again, the hashes aren’t of arbitrary subject matter, they’re of specific images. Using that to police subject matter would be ludicrous.
How would Apple know what the content was that was flagged if all they are provided with is a list of hashes? I completely agree it's ludicrous, but there are plenty of countries that want that exact functionality.
