West Virginia AG John McCuskey sues Apple for failing to block child abuse material on iCloud and iOS devices.
West Virginia AG John McCuskey sues Apple for failing to block child abuse material on iCloud and iOS devices.
West Virginia’s attorney general John McCuskey has filed a lawsuit against Apple Inc., alleging the tech giant failed to properly prevent child sexual abuse material from circulating on iCloud and iOS devices. The legal action claims the company’s strong stance on user privacy may have come at the expense of child safety protections.
McCuskey argues that other major tech firms, including Google and Microsoft, have taken stronger steps to detect and remove such content. The lawsuit intensifies scrutiny on how Silicon Valley balances encryption, privacy, and online safety.
The case could have major implications for Apple’s privacy-first branding and how platforms police illegal material moving forward.
