UK Even Wants Image Scanners on Unsupported Devices

> On-device nudity detection relies on machine-learning models that lean on the dedicated silicon built into recent phones, and older devices lack the neural processing and memory to run that kind of model without wrecking battery life and speed.

I'm beginning to suspect Apple complied in advance because their new devices have image-recognitions technology, but their competitors don't (particularly old hand-me down devices). Build a safety feature, have it made mandatory, and leverage the government to outlaw your competitors!

You get the sense that Keir Starmer has found something that the silent majority really want to support him on. We'll see what it does to his approval ratings ahead of any leadership contest.

Whether it's achievable or not is a different question of course.
