While scanning for child sex abuse pictures, they will see other images. This is not good for people’s privacy.
Technically, they will not see other images. The chances of that happening is sllim.

Your images will be run through an A.I. Those with a basic understanding of Machine Learning will understand what I'm saying.

Your images will be compared against a dataset of multiple images related to child porn. If a pattern similar to child porn is formed, such image will be marked. Only images with patterns similar to child porn will then be sent to humans for further verification!

So, except your images have traces of child porn, there is nothing to fear!

They have no duty regarding that aspect, but websites and social media are 100% responsible for that,
There's a lot of porn on the net, they should look for ways to curtail that,
Btw it's none of my business, I've never seen child porn but whatever it is I think the issue shouldn't be overemphasised,
Homosexuality is free so why not allow people feed on their porn whatever as long as they're not posing a threat to the next person?
OK if you think they're posing a threat, look for them and get them, stop spying on everybody because of some few people.
the same people will say Google shouldn't track people across websites and social media shouldn't restrict people and they all claim right to privacy as to why that shouldn't happen.
If you read what Apple said, they are not spying on the phone but icloud when you sync your photos to it.... How will they go after the few when you don't even know them. If I take you to a location you are not familiar with and ask you to arrest the criminals there, how would that be possible if you don't monitor their activities or catch them in the act?

Another thing is storing your photos on iCloud means you have already given Apple whatever privacy you are claiming to have. You never had any privacy to begin with. The same with those storing their pictures on Google photos.

Only way to preserve you private is to go mad live in the forest and stay away from technology.

In theory, yes. But you are never too sure about the exact implementation of the A.I.

It will eventually lead to violation of users' privacy.

What do you expect, when your info are backed up on their icloud storage, did u think u ever had the privacy?..it's like your normal backup memory device.. whenever you need some info which u don't want it should be missing you recall. For the fact the phone has high security doesn't stop their being accessible to your info.

No Mind the guy,
Oppo Find X3 pro is fire, based on specs, reviews and performance.
But Trumped really fvcked Huawei up, they've not been allowed to use Google playstore and play services,
That's one reason why their market share keeps falling.
I'll accept the Huawei without the play store just wasting my phone's RAM
