That's not what's happening with the "load earlier messages" button at all. The long term iMessages history is stored in an unencrypted sqlite database on the phone (which is included, unencrypted, in local iTunes backups).
- r00fus 13y agoLocal backups can be encrypted (mine are). Also it's not necessary to use cloud backups (I don't). Therefore, my iMessage history is secure (I fully understand that my message recipients may expose my individual messages, but my copy is safe).
- dvanduzer 13y agoThe fact that it is possible to perform encryption on the entire backup file does not change the fact that many people are (wrongly) speculating about things which are easily verifiable.
