The tech giant triggered a backlash from policy groups and its own employees after announcing plans to scan iPhones and report offending images to the US National Centre for Missing and Exploited Children.
Apple also said it would be easy for researchers to make sure that the list of image identifiers being sought on one iPhone was the same as the lists on all other phones, seeking to blunt concerns that the new mechanism could be used to target individuals.
Asked why it had only announced that the US National Center for Missing and Exploited Children would be a supplier of flagged image identifiers when at least one other clearinghouse would need to have separately flagged the same picture, an Apple executive said that the company had only finalized its deal with NCMEC.
