I better clean up my drafts folder. I have lots of unsent messages that I wrote in impulsive moods, but had the wherewithal not to send. And in most cases, fortunately never sent.
- astura 9y agoWhy not just encrypt your phone? Unless you give someone else (spouse?) unfettered access to it, I guess. They you'd already trust him or her.
- r00fus 9y agoCan you trust that your phone won't be unlocked by court order? Apple does accede to lawful court requests.
- Canada 9y agoBecause if it's encrypted then even Apple can't unlock it
- netsharc 9y agoBut they cam write and deploy a version of iOS which will not respect the "wipe the phone" command after 10 false password tries, making brute-forcing viable (it also helped that it was obvious the phone just needed a 4-digit number to unlock). Luckily they refused to do that and won in court.
- recursive 9y agoCan the OS be updated without unlocking?
- netsharc 9y agoI... believe so? Speaking from experience with older models: You can hold a combination of the keys to go into https://www.theiphonewiki.com/wiki/DFU_Mode https://www.theiphonewiki.com/wiki/DFU_Mode, and if you plug the device to your computer, you can reflash the OS. The phone would have multiple partitions, so it would only flash the OS partition with the new version of the OS, and leave the (encrypted) data partition alone.
