No. You don't get to decide what is put on my personal computing device just because you want to force the general public to bear the burden of protecting children rather than forcing parents to do their fucking jobs.

    Damn right. I paid for the device, it's mine and I can use it solely to take pictures of my bare ass should I choose so. There's of course, and for a reason, limitations on how I can use those pictures, but those apply to any device capable of taking a photo of anything. But I can still use pictures of my ass as a wallpaper in my own home if I want to.

    In the last century, every single one of the UK ministers pushing for this level of censorship were either gasp gay, or pedophiles. Would not surprise me if this trend continued

    They should make it a law to require adequate parental controls to exist on a phone in a way that parents can use them, then teach the parents how to use them. If your kid goes and starts viewing porn then it’s your own fault.

    They already exist on the iPhone. Take a nude. Try and use the cutout feature. Find that you’re absolutely not able to do it. Now find a non nude picture and use the cutout feature. Find that you can absolutely use it.

    This stuff is already enacted right now on iPhone.

    Assuming the cutout feature works by AI and requires you send your photo to their server, it makes a lot of sense that Apple don't want you sending your nads to their server.

    No it’s processed on device. You can even try this with airplane mode. The cutout feature still works even for new photos taken while offline. There is on-device processing of nudes.

    I'd stand with Big Tech on this one.
