Say what you want about Apple and their motivations, we really need them to win this case.

No 👏 they 👏 do 👏 not.
Get Apple’s dick out of your ass.
They literally have a history of giving governments data access and encryption keys: thehackernews.com/…/how-apple-gave-chinese-govern…

San Bernardino shooter case?

That’s separate from what OP is talking about. The on-device encryption is decent
For data on Apple’s servers (which they push icloud by anemic device storage…) Apple themselves publish that they give access to user accounts 90% of the time in the US

It’s irrelevant what fascism collaborators do as their side job. Fuck apple.

I didn’t say I like Apple or that I trust them or anything. I said we want them to win this lawsuit.
daddy32@lemmy.world 3 days ago
They can win it in a way that will still benefit only them and not you.
LandedGentry@lemmy.zip 3 days ago
Do you even understand what this lawsuit is about?
OsrsNeedsF2P@lemmy.ml 4 days ago
Ignoring the fact they already did this in China? And by the way, you have no way of knowing when your data was uploaded to the Chinese servers
LandedGentry@lemmy.zip 4 days ago
I’m not sure how this is incompatible with what I said. Are you saying you don’t want them to win this lawsuit?
OsrsNeedsF2P@lemmy.ml 4 days ago
It’s already gone because it’s not disclosed when or why it is moved to servers where the Chinese govt can decrypt it, but I guess it depends on who you’re worried about having your data
micka190@lemmy.world 4 days ago
No one outside of China has their data stored there, though. Every tech company that complies with China hosts the data in China and usually makes the Chinese version of their software work differently as a result. The Chinese government isn’t able to just see everyone else’s data.

It’s already gone. There’s nothing I can do about it

Apple is all proprietary anyways, so you shouldn’t trust them still, even if they win this court case. I recommend using Librebooted Dell OptiPlex 780’s or Dell E4300 Latitude’s with Trisquel GNU/Linux + Tor Browser with Javascript disabled if your looking for the most privacy in your internet activites. You can do what you wish with this information.

Oh my god the responses are so aggravating
It does not fucking matter what we think of Apple. If they lose this case, we all lose.
This isn’t a discussion about what hardware to buy dude jfc take step back and look around you for 2 seconds
Zeon@lemmy.world 3 days ago
I think we should attack this issue at the root. There are already backdoors in the devices anyway, so what’s this court case really going to achieve? I get it, because it would be a known backdoor, but think of all the nastier NSA backdoors that aren’t disclosed to the public. We’ve lost already by the masses using proprietary garbage.

Sometimes i like Apple, sometimes I don’t. This is certainly the former.

They’re certainly less-bad about this stuff than Google, Facebook, etc.

Yeah but they too paid trump a fortune to clamp down on eu regulations
