They didn't use dodgy language: "conversations which take place over iMessage and FaceTime are protected by end-to-end encryption so no one but the sender and receiver can see or read them. Apple cannot decrypt that data." [1].

- fpgeek 13y agoSuppose Apple made the broad, unequivocal claim before they got an iMessage-related NSL. While the NSL can't compel Apple to lie, would Apple choose tone down their language afterwards?
- privong 13y agoI meant using dodgy langugage in future statements. They may not have received a NSL yet, so one doesn't know if their strong language could poentially be tempered by a NSL. I don't think one can conclusively argue this point either way.
- ChuckMcM 13y agoAnd per the article, that statement can be true at the same time this statement can be true: "Apple can intercept the creation of new conversations between users on iMessage or FaceTime if compelled to do so by a valid court order." English being as fungible as it is, leads to this sort of mess.
