Have you noticed a lot of things are becoming buggy lately? Or lots of errors on your software. I see this on Windows especially which had at least 500 publiished fixes, and even Linux. Even server software like Apache had 50 bug fixes. iOS is being changed too though they never explain what''s being fixed. It's all quiet and no one is saying anything. But definitely something is happening.
Something very basic that the average person does not care about even if they knew about it. Your every click on a website is tracked. Every single one. How does this work? Surprisingly easy enough to understand yet apparently no one wants to explain this.
There are ways around this for the privacy conscious but the mechanics of the tracking has to be fully understood.
A rant. The most irritating thing for those of us who are privacy conscious are comments like "what are you hiding?" or "as long as you follow the law who cares?" or "you're paranoid".
I'm sure I'm not alone on this. Well, if you get irritated by this, then there is nothing wrong with you. Ignore these NPCs but you also need a smart understanding of why you do need to care and why these NPCs are the ones who are wrong.
The intent to scan content to counter end-to-end encryption is no longer theoretical with the passing of the UK Online Safety Bill.
How would the OS makers then build in client-side scanning? Let's tackle a theoretical project to do this on your favorite operating system (Windows, MacOS, iOS, Android).
This would be how I would do it.
