That’s a very large claim to make without any further citation or sourcing. This would be very big news if true.
- sneak 4y agoReuters reported it and mostly nobody cares. I have linked this link on HN dozens of times. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-apple-fbi-icloud-exclusive/exclusive-apple-dropped-plan-for-encrypting-backups-after-fbi-complained-sources-idUSKBN1ZK1CT https://www.reuters.com/article/us-apple-fbi-icloud-exclusiv... iCloud Backup (non e2e) backs up the endpoint keys for iMessage. Apple knows this is bad and they were going to do e2e backups (like Google does for Android) and Apple Legal killed the project on FBI request.
