Apple sued for failing to curtail child sexual abuse material on iCloud

The abuse began when she was still an infant. A relative molested her, took photographs and swapped the images with others online. He allowed another man to spend time with her, multiplying the abuse.

Nearly every day, the woman, now 27, is reminded of that abuse with a law enforcement notice that someone has been charged with possessing those images. One such notification, which she received in late 2021, said the images had been found on a man’s MacBook in Vermont. Her lawyer later confirmed with law enforcement that the images had also been stored in Apple’s iCloud.
