You don't even need to go very deep to find financial interests at stake: Thorn sells a "comprehensive solution for platforms to identify, remove and report child sexual abuse material." [1] So the CEO of this Heat Initiative is pressuring Apple to implement the kind of solution her previous company is selling. But yes, Eric Schmidt famously said he thinks that there is no right to privacy. Although he did try to get a journalist fired for what he considered an infringement on his privacy, so I imagine this only applies to us peasants. But billionaire philanthropy is definitely a wonderful thing, let's keep telling ourselves how great it is that Schmidt, Gates and co are willing to do so much disinterested work to help the world.
