Apple’s statement to Bloomberg:
Apple protects user privacy and safeguards your data with Safari Fraudulent Website Warning, a security feature that flags websites known to be malicious in nature. When the feature is enabled, Safari checks the website URL against lists of known websites and displays a warning if the URL the user is visiting is suspected of fraudulent conduct like phishing. To accomplish this task, Safari receives a list of websites known to be malicious from Google, and for devices with their region code set to
mainland China, it receives a list from Tencent. The actual URL of a website you visit is never shared with a safe browsing provider and the feature can be turned off.
Apple 通过 Safari Fraudulent Website Warning(Safari 诈骗网站警告)
保护用户隐私和数据,该功能可标记已被识辨的诈骗网站。
启用此功能后,Safari 会根据已知诈骗网站列表检查网站 URL,
并当用户到访怀疑是诈骗网站的 URL 时对用户显示警告讯息。
在这过程中,Safari 会从 Google 接收了一个已识辨为诈骗网站的列表。
区域设定为中国大陆的设备将从腾讯接收诈骗网站列表。
用户到访的网站的 URL 绝对不会与传送予安全浏览供应商,
用户亦可随时自行关闭这项功能。

还好是虚惊一场,
刚好在近几年全球对中国敏感的时期,各企业都要小心翼翼,
有些文章用“抓到”或“悄悄”的字眼也很怪,
因为这是写在隐私权内的公开讯息,虽然写得不够仔细容易误导。
蛮多人实验跟审视程式码后,都证实这是专为中国地区的设计。
希望自由世界守住防线。
