>iCloud photos are encrypted, so scanning has to happen on device.
Is this true? I feel like Apple benefits from the confusion about "Encrypted at rest" + "Encrypted in transit" and "E2E Encrypted". It's my understanding that Apple could scan the photos in iCloud, since they have the decryption keys, but they choose not to, as a compromise.
I'm keying into this because this document: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202303 doesn't show Photos as part of the category of data that "Apple doesn't have access to." That's mentioned only in the context of the E2E stuff.
