It's GREAT to know that your test shows the vulnerability in the iCloud backup of iMessages.
Not that I believe every article that I read (I always speculate sources and bias journalism), but here is an article "pre-PRISM," that states the FBI's stance with iMessage: http://news.cnet.com/8301-13578_3-57577887-38/apples-imessage-encryption-trips-up-feds-surveillance/ http://news.cnet.com/8301-13578_3-57577887-38/apples-imessag...
- lawnchair_larry 13y agoThis only says that their SMS tap at the carrier won't have visibility into messages sent over iMessage. Even without iCloud backup, Apple, or anyone they add keys for on your account, can decrypt iMessages.
- quackerhacker 13y agoI agree with you...but to clear any confusion. What I'm implying is the same hypocrisy that Snowden is trying to thwart. By the gov releasing a PR statement (the one that I noted) as such, it instills confidence in iMessage, while the OP, you, and I have noted that there still are vulnerabilities.
