Really? How do you explain Secure Enclave, end-to-end iMessage encryption and lots more? Not to mention the tough stance they publicly took against FBI wanting special OS version to crack terrorist phones?
- pgeorgi 9y agoTo play the devil's advocate: > Secure Enclave ARM TrustZone. My 2005-era low-end devices have that. Hardly Apple's idea. Microsoft did ground work in that space for ~2 decades by now. It's called TPM and has a bunch of advantages by being a discrete component. It's also an industry-wide initiative and open to all. > end-to-end iMessage encryption Perfect for locking down the ecosystem. > tough stance they publicly took against FBI Posturing (on both sides: The FBI knows that they're SoL on getting such favors, with or without writing whiny op-eds on how they're incompetent). You'd have already seen leaked versions of the "special OS versions to crack" had the other vendors budged to such demands. They might just discuss matters with the Feds without inviting the press.
- tptacek 9y agoThe Secure Enclave is not ARM TrustZone. The SEP is a discrete component.
