Cool! Incoming calls => incoming dick pics



> A new feature, Sensitive Content Warning, helps adult users avoid seeing unwanted nude images and videos.

It looks like there's now a feature you can enable that uses a classifier (I'm guessing?) to identify dick pics, and let you choose whether you want to see it or not. The last slide[0] in the last carousel on the linked page has an image of the dialog.

I bet that was an interesting team to work on.

They made it in 2021 if I remember correctly[1]. Was originally designed for children, but they're just now releasing it for general use.

That's a different feature, hashes images and looks them up in a database of CSAM (Child Sexual Abuse Materials) database and then if you have that, reports you to an NGO, not law enforcement.


Why is that so badly photoshopped on what appears to be an original iPhone?


That’s only for known contacts. Maybe you need better friends?


You only add friends to your contacts list?
