Comment Re:Is Apple itself guilty of child porn possession (Score 1) 63
Apple must have trained their models on a database of child porn, and their developers must have used child porn when constructing those models (I can't imagine a more repulsive job unless it's working on snuff videos), so is Apple in illegal possession of child porn?
Apple didn't create the database of hashes of child sex abuse images. The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children did. Apple just compares hashes of images uploaded to their servers to hashes from known images of child sex abuse. So no - Apple is not and was never in illegal possession of illegal images, at least not for the purposes of creating this database.
