Apple turns iCloud into spy cloud, will start looking at public share links
Apple announced plans to scan publicly accessible iCloud share links for harmful content starting with iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and visionOS version 27.3, expected in December. The company did not define what constitutes harmful content, explain the scanning mechanism, or clarify whether human review or automated systems will perform the checks. Publicly shared items via "Anyone with the Link" will lose end-to-end encryption, and Apple reserves the right to remove content, disable accounts, and involve law enforcement.
Why it matters: Organizations and individuals using iCloud to share files via public links should understand that content will be subject to Apple's undefined moderation standards and may be removed or trigger account restrictions without clear appeal processes.
