This is how they sold it: of course, nobody wants to see unsolicited dick pics. Good framing, they obviously pay their marketing department very well. Yet, consider how many unsolicited dick pics you actually see in a day, week, or month- and if sometimes blocking a % of them is worth permanently ceding more privacy to Apple.

If you’re seeing so many dick pics to where this is positive trade off for you, you need to reflect on how you’re interacting with the web.

Some of my female friends get them quite regularly. So idk.

I’m going to go on a limb and guess you’re a dude.

I suggest you expand your social circle and talk to some women that are moderately active on social media.

Women are nowadays confronted with their face generated on fake porn by AI, hell some are confronted with generated sexual abuse as a form of threat and harassment if they piss off the wrong person, and you’re out here talking about dick pics.

What’s worse is that you just couldn’t resist to add a dash of misogynistic victim blaming as a cherry on top.

> permanently ceding more privacy to Apple

How is on-device image classification "ceding more privacy"? Because an OS vendor provided it?

> If you’re seeing so many [...] you need to reflect on how you’re interacting with the web

Are you seriously claiming not to understand the concept of SPAM and info leaks?
