- Salgat 2y agoThat's only if the other end is also Apple. Thankfully https is pretty ubiquitous.
- ChadNauseam 2y agoThis seems unlikely to me given Apple's branding around privacy. Do you suspect they're going to backdoor the iOS HTTPS implementation for Starlink?
- tayo42 2y agoIs there a way to prove your data is private? Or were just taking their word on it?

- JumpCrisscross 2y ago> SpaceX will see exactly who you are talking to Is Starlink routing? I’d expect they’d see you’re talking to Apple, or at worst a CDN.
- tsimionescu 2y agoIf you're accesing, say, an Iranian site, SpaceX will obviously see that and can record it. If you're doing a VoIP call or sending a text, I'm much less sure they'd see where it's going - but wouldn't think it's out of the question.

- tsimionescu 2y agoFirst, that's rarely true, plenty of people use DNS, not DoH (and DoH just means Clodflare or whoever gets to know your traffic too). But even when they are, this is mostly irrelevant: your network provider knows which IPs you're talking to, otherwise they couldn't route your packets, obviously. It's generally quite trivial to do a reverse DNS search and figure out which hostname corresponds to the IP you're talking to.
