Ah, that's very different from what he said, completely.
It's not? He said this:
The scan results are private (until uploaded to iCloud).
Which would be true if uploading photos to icloud is disabled and they aren't forcing you to back up photos with icloud. Those mean the same thing.
Uploading photos to iCloud would be a different operation than uploading the scan results (which are not photos) to iCloud. Photo uploads are controlled by the end user, the scan uploads are not (as they have no setting in the OS.)
It is the uploading of the scan results to iCloud that is the issue at hand. It's not a step along the way, it is the very problem. So "until" doesn't apply since that is the end result we are concerned about.
Where do you see that? You're making assumptions. The scan results would have to include the photo. That doesn't make any sense. What is the human verification for if the photo isn't uploaded?
Again, theae are all assumptions on your part about how this works. No one here knows how it works currently, so telling them they're wrong is infantile because you can't prove you're right.
The whole thing is bad, but don't get into arguments about things that you can't possibly understand how they work yet.
