"The audio/video contents of FaceTime calls are protected by end-to-end encryption, so no one but the sender and receiver can access them. Apple cannot decrypt the data."

> And you can only do that between iPhone/Mac users.
Ah yeah, I thought Signal was only for iPhone, based on the title. Should have read the first paragraph more closely.
- carbocation 12y ago>This product, Signal, seems to only be for iPhones. So it's even more limited. It appears to interoperate with RedPhone, an Android app by the same authors.
- higherpurpose 12y agoYou don't know what you don't know - or in other words, have you seen the latest research on iOS surveillance mechanisms? There could be other "undocumented" stuff that makes the encryption of Facetime Audio irrelevant.
- bdesimone 12y agoIn the very same doc you quote, they also say of iMessage: "Apple does not log messages or attachments, and their contents are protected by end-to-end encryption so no one but the sender and receiver can access them. Apple cannot decrypt the data." Which has been refuted several times.
