ExpansionCards VS AppleNeuralHash2ONNX

I think the SD module won't be able to have the card flush, as the modules are only and SD cards are 32mm long, and you need some PCB space for the socket cage and the USB-C on the other side. The retrofit PCB outline they provide is only 26.9mm from front edge to back edge, so an SD card will stick out a little bit.

So perhaps they decided to go for the one that lets users have the card flush for use like an expansion bay as well as for data transfer to/from devices.

There are many laptops and desktops that fit the bill.

Frame.work: https://frame.work/

Dell: https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000138246/linux-on-...

System76: https://system76.com/laptops

Kubuntu Focus: https://kfocus.org/land/business

I am sure there are more, this is only what I have found in less than 5 minutes of searching.

I'll buy a frame.work long before I touch system76. Their prices are too high for the general feedback I keep seeing on the quality control. I'm not spending 3k+ to be out a laptop until support responds. Especially, considering they still don't make these in house..

No they didn't, companies just mostly gave up on it.

A Framework Laptop (https://frame.work)

You could get a Framework 13 which comes with your choice of a 7840U or 7640U and a Radeon 780M iGPU. They do officially support Linux, and you don't have to pay for a Windows license, if you go the DIY option and chose to not get a Windows license.

Take a look at the Framework laptops. They're 100% modular so if stuff like that goes bad you can simply order the replacement part and do it yourself. I'm using a desktop right now but Ithink my next laptop is gonna be a framework.

a couple of days ago I tried to order a Framework laptop (13 inch AMD). I chose to create an account during the checkout process and provided my email address. After entering my shipping details, I authorized the transfer of the deposit fee via Giropay. The deposit was deducted from my bank account but when I was sent back to the frame.work website I was greeted by an error message. Unfortunately I could neither complete the checkout process nor continue my account registration.

Perhaps you're referring to the hash collisions that were generated for the client-side NeuralHash which was reverse engineered about a year ago: https://github.com/AsuharietYgvar/AppleNeuralHash2ONNX/issues/1

Except Apple’s hashes have collisions where images that are similar in content but not identical will have the same hash. Meaning their process will have the same result: benign images being flagged as CSAM. See an example here https://github.com/AsuharietYgvar/AppleNeuralHash2ONNX/issues/1

perceptual hashes are completely broken due to false positives, like making a picture of a dog having the same hash as CSAM images. They are vulnerable to collision and have no preimage resistance, the most important feature. Because of that you can DOS conversations and people by sending dog images with the same hash as a CSAM: https://github.com/AsuharietYgvar/AppleNeuralHash2ONNX/issues/1

Specifically the fact that you can have one hash on two images, for example. There are other ways to abuse the CSAM system, which is confirmed by several researchers (one, two). And Apple saying it's not a concern... only to pull back on these plans.
