That’s an amazing strawman argument you have there. But please, let’s stay on topic.
The topic was “Apple shares iCloud data with law enforcement, regardless of whether the iCloud data is encrypted or not”.
Sure, here is the legal document from Apple by Apple of what they share with law enforcement.
Included inside is:
III. Information Available from Apple A. Device Registration B. Customer Service Records C. Apple Media Services D. Apple Store Transactions E. Apple.com Orders F. Gift Cards G. Apple Cash H. Apple Pay I. Apple Pay Later J. Apple Card K. Savings L. iCloud M. Find My N. AirTag and Find My Network Accessory Program O. Extracting Data from Passcode Locked iOS Devices P. IP Address Request Q. Other Available Device Information R. Requests for Apple Store CCTV Data S. Game Center T. iOS Device Activation U. Connection Logs V. My Apple ID and iForgot Logs W. FaceTime X. iMessage Y. Apple TV app Z. Sign in with Apple AA. Apple Push Notification Service (APNs)
They’ve been doing it for data on device, not on iCloud (cloud data). They have full access to that.
Apple is still not offering governments a backdoor into encrypted content
You mean like they have to under the USA PRISM Act?
Double check prices first. I moved from Canada to the Euro and all electronics are about 20% more expensive here (when converting the currency). Including from the companies website (Google, Microsoft, Apple) so it’s not just a third party raising prices issue.
That would be a part of Telsa, as it calls out Musk’s actions there.
I meant a call 15 minutes before there were there.
Reminds me of my Telus internet.
“A technician will come to fix your internet problem Tuesday and they will be there sometime between 8am to 5pm. They will give you a 15 minute call before they arrive. If there is no one home when they come by, you will be given a $150 no show fee.”

They have the app stores ban it from being downloaded if you are in the USA. This is already done, and app stores aren’t affected by on device VPNs, so it wouldn’t be that easy to get around.
For example, you can’t download this app since (I’m guessing) you live in the USA, similar enough. It’s geolocked. Same will happen with Tiktok.
Seems everyone jumped to conclusions about this article.
Yes, iPhones are blocked because they lack security. This is military, so they aren’t worried about basic malware. They are worried about government level security issues (Pegasus, etc…). And let’s be blunt, on this level, Apple keeps showing that they lack security in the real world situations. Yet the latest of a long list of iPhones being targeted and hacked.
Now, where people seem to be badly jumping to conclusions is that the article points out that “many” devices will be banned, so no, I doubt the latest Samsung Galaxy phone will be allowed. They are most likely going to require people use a Samsung Tactical Edition smartphone. These are designed for military usage and prevent phones from being secretly turned on for recording private conversations by hacks like Pegasus. These phones have been around for a few years now, and have likely been thoroughly tested and approved now.
This isn’t some knee-jerk patriotic requirement, but a real understanding of what is and isn’t a secure device, combined with the fact that Korea has to deal with a more and more aggressive China. They need real security for real world military.
You mean the Samsung “Tactical Edition” smartphones?
They’ve been around for years. They were originally built for the Korean military. And it didn’t cost them an “astronomical” amount of money.
“I didn’t know what it was, how was I supposed to know not to delete it?”
Forgot to add “Add a comma in your password, so if the all the user logins get leak, it will destroy the CSV file it gets uploaded to”.
More like it’s because it doesn’t support Mac as much as they want them to.
Rare boom isn’t boomer.
It would be like putting Fallout in First person mode and calling it a FPS shooter game since it does have guns.
Dusk is a boomer shooter. Same group who I quoted the first time.
The problem with the gambit system was it was too easy to script an attack setting that the battles played themselves and you could only lose if you were grossly out leveled.
Finished the game like this by just walking thru it, just killed the challenge. And it wasn’t set up well to use commands, more just the gambit system.
