Except of course via Chinese access to the unencrypted cloud as required by their laws. Who as we've seen this week, is willing to sell to anyone.

- coldtea 9y agoWell, unless you're Chinese, this doesn't apply to you anyway. And I'm not sure what we "seen this week". If you mean the link posted below, that's unrelated from some "unencrypted Cloud" -- it seems to talk about data on Apple customers (names, addresses, email, numbers, etc), from some POS/CRM system or such.
- tbolt 9y agoCould you elaborate on this and/or provide some links? First I've heard of this.

- matthewmacleod 9y agoThat's about an entirely different matter.
- coldtea 9y agoThis looks totally unrelated to some "unencrypted cloud" access the parent mentioned. It says "The suspects allegedly used an internal company computer system to gather users’ names, phone numbers, Apple IDs, and other data, which they sold as part of a scam worth more than 50 million yuan (US$7.36 million)." So this is about CRM style data being stolen.
- caiob 9y agoThat's an issue even Governments can't deal with, we can't expect Apple to be able to circumvent Chinese laws.
