A US federal court has dismissed a lawsuit against Apple that accused the company of allowing child sexual abuse material (CSAM) on its iCloud service. This was reported by Qazaqyia.kz citing Reuters.

The court ruled that the plaintiffs failed to prove that Apple did not take adequate measures to detect and remove CSAM from iCloud. The judge dismissed the case, noting that the company made reasonable efforts to prevent the spread of such material on its platform.

The decision is a significant win for Apple, which had previously pledged to strengthen its CSAM countermeasures. The plaintiffs' attorneys plan to appeal the ruling.
