Apple's effort to use CSS, client side scanning to check images on smartphones for child abuse and other crime. This technology scans images on a smartphone and compares it with a database of child abuse material (CSAM) and notifies Apple if a match is found. This serves as an effort to make technology compatible with social needs of today after the balance had swung too far in the opposite direction allowing damage to civil society, to women, and to children.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
