“#App<\/a>le says photos in iCloud will be checked by child abuse detection system<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

Apple on Monday said that iPhone users\u2019 entire photo libraries will be checked for known child abuse images if they are stored in the online iCloud service.<\/p>\n

The disclosure came in a series<\/a> of media<\/a> briefings in which Apple is seeking to dispel alarm over its announcement last week that it will scan users\u2019 phones, tablets and computers for millions of illegal pictures.<\/p>\n

While Google, Microsoft and other technology<\/a> platforms check uploaded photos or e-mailed attachments against a database of identifiers provided by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children and other clearing houses, security experts faulted Apple\u2019s plan as more invasive.<\/p>\n

Some said they expected that governments would seek to force the iPhone maker to expand the system to peer into devices for other material.<\/p>\n

In a posting to its Web site on Sunday, Apple said it would fight any such attempts, which can occur in secret courts.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have faced demands to build and deploy government-mandated changes that degrade the privacy of users before, and have steadfastly refused those demands,\u201d Apple wrote. \u201cWe will continue to refuse them in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the briefing on Monday, Apple officials said the company\u2019s system, which will roll out this fall with the release of its iOS 15 operating system, will check existing files on a user\u2019s device if users have those photos synched to the company\u2019s storage servers.<\/p>\n

Julie Cordua, chief executive of Thorn<\/a>, a group that has developed technology to help law enforcement officials detect sex trafficking, said about half of child sexual abuse material is formatted as video.<\/p>\n

Apple\u2019s system does not check videos before they are uploaded to the company\u2019s cloud, but the company said it plans to expand its system in unspecified ways in the future.<\/p>\n

Apple has come under international pressure for the low numbers of its reports of abuse material compared with other providers. Some European jurisdictions are debating legislation to hold platforms more accountable for the spread of such material.<\/p>\n

Company executives argued on Monday that on-device checks preserve privacy more than running checks on Apple\u2019s cloud storage directly. Among other things, the architecture of the new system does not tell Apple anything about a user\u2019s content unless a threshold number of images has been surpassed, which then triggers a human review.<\/p>\n

The executives acknowledged that a user could be implicated by malicious actors who win control of a device and remotely install known child abuse material. But they said they expected any such attacks to be very rare and that in any case a review would then look for other signs of criminal hacking.\n <\/div>\n
