One of the data elements in the voucher is an “image derivative” (probably a thumbnail) So the author of the article is technically correct: Apple intentionally uploads CP to their servers for manual review which is explicitly forbidden by law. He even describes the issue with thumbnails

It is exceedingly unlikely that a system developed with NCMEC’s support and a Fortune 5 legal team somehow fails to comply with the most obviously relevant laws.

I'd say: A trillion-dollar company and a government agency can do whatever they feel like, and laws be damned :)
