We’re not confused about what Apple is doing. They’re implementing client-side scanning… as requested by Barr/The FBI all the way back to end of 2019.
And, as the Federighi interview shows, they’re barefaced lying about it. They know exactly what they’re doing and why.
I’ve lost all trust in this company.
(The only trust I had anyway was because of their business model.)
Apple is just as bad as Google, if not worse, at this point.
People have been demanding big tech does more about child abuse and other 'material' on line for years. Tech companies are under pressure to act. Result badly thought out ideas by big tech and very bad policies from clueless politicians, which the authorities have to implement.
Meanwhile when young people complain about being sexually harassed,, assaulted or in some cases raped they are IGNORED by schools who should legally (at least in the United Kingdom ) act and take disclosures seriously.

The internet is NOT a child minder.
