    You mean Time Apple, the man that was renamed by a pedophile and then gave that pedophile a golden gift to appease him?

      Stop acting like giving gold bars to a paedophile is bribery. It was obviously a payment for child prostitution.

    Also Tim cook quote, “you’re so great Mr. Trump, we had an army man, nake you a special trophy just for you. The base is literally a gold bar that I’m illegally giving you. Isn’t that fun, you’re so great trump. Thank you trump. I love you trump. It’s such a joy to socialize with you trump”

    Politicians who don’t understand technology (and some that do) will continue advocating for a break in encryption “so they can catch the bad guys.”

    No, you fuck. Either it’s protected or it’s not. I’ve just been listening to the latest podcast from 404 Media (you should check them out; print and audio). One of their primary stories is about cops accessing Flock cameras to stalk their ex-partners. AUTHORITY NEEDS LIMITS.

    It’s a game of whack-a-mole: if one place allows access, privacy seekers will move elsewhere.

    That’s why apple is so cutting edge. Wait, maybe they are just experts in the obvious?

    If Apple were truly serious about an individual’s security and privacy, they’d facilitate self hosted online services as peers to the versions they provide on their platforms.

    They can be best in class at what they do, but exclusively locking everyone into their ecosystem obliterates any meaningful good will.

    Doesn’t apple backdoor UK users anyway?

      I don’t think they went through with it.

      I remember reading a related article reclaimthenet

      This same Home Office served Apple with a secret order, a Technical Capability Notice, demanding a backdoor into end-to-end encrypted iCloud backups, first for every human on the planet and later, after Washington threw a tantrum, for British users alone. Secret being the operative word, since the law gagged Apple from so much as admitting the order existed.

      Apple’s answer was to rip its strongest encryption out of the UK entirely rather than build the thing, sniffing that it has “never built a backdoor or master key to any of our products or services,” and the fight is still grinding through the courts. That is the track record of this government, one that asks one company, in the dark, to dismantle encryption for an entire nation is not a government you hand a camera-side scanner and trust to use it gently.
