> false claims that Apple has made regarding their respect for users privacy What false claim have they made?

• Teever 5y ago
  Every claim that Apple makes about respecting user privacy is false because Apple does not allow users the means to independently verify the claims made by Apple regarding security. Additionally Apple does not allow users the means t control the hardware that they purchase by for instance, installing whatever software that they want on their devices.

    You say ‘every claim’. I’m asking which claims. Can you find one?

        “What happens on your iPhone stays on your iPhone” Seems like this is still true. CSAM checking only happens when you choose to upload your photos to iCloud Photo Library.

          Apple has been using some dark patterns to force people to use iCloud. Telling them they haven’t finished setting up their phone. It notifies you until you sign up for the free tier, and then when that’s filled up it pesters you again

            That’s true, and a fair criticism, but it’s quite different from saying people don’t have a choice.

  See the title.
  • zepto 5y ago
    The title doesn’t contain a claim made by Apple.
    • fsflover 5y ago
      Yes, it does. Apple promised to enable e2e and did not do it.

        Where did they ‘promise’ it? By what date?
