My two cents: I get the impression this is related to NSO pegasus software. So once the Israeli firms leaks were made public Appple had to respond and has patched some security holes that were exposed publicly.
NSO used exploits in iMessage to enable them to grab photos, texts among other things.
Now shortly after Apple security patches we see them pivot and now want to “work” with law enforcement. Hmmm almost like once access was closed Apple needs a way to justify “opening” access to devices.
Yes I realize this could be a stretch based on the info. Just seems like an interesting coincidence… back door exposed and closed…. now it’s back open… almost like governments demand access
- MichaelMoser123 5y agoI guess it doesn't matter, the smartphone is a tracking device by definition, they can track your movement with a dumb phone too, but there are much more possibilities in a device with recording capabilities and an internet connection. In Orwells '1984' they mandated the installation of a televisor tracking device, now they have one in every pocket, and so it goes that we traded privacy for convenience. It's a bit of an irony, that Apple started with the big brother commercial, and ended up bringing us the televisor. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zIE-5hg7FoA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zIE-5hg7FoA Just because opportunity for an exploit is creating the reality of using that exploit, it seems as if it is then used for it's intended purpose..
