I could have spent an hour coming up with the perfect solitaire joke just for it to be topped by this banger.
Used to do laptop repair. It’s insane how often this happens with the crappy plastic shells.
Depends how they implemented the encryption. But you’re probably right
I completely disagree. He was making no comments about obesity being morally or socially wrong. He was simply saying it is his personal preference to not be fat, he prefers to be thin.
If that is fat phobic then me saying I don’t want to have sex with other men is homophobic.
Source? As far as I know they didn’t claim to not know location until iOS 17 release. Up until then they could access that info, and were required to give it up provided with warrants. This has been a reason Apple has actively been limiting the data they have access to. They cannot be compelled to give up data they have no way of accessing.
It also makes it look like we are covered with satellites. Imagine if there was 8100 cars spread all over the planet, and that’s it. Each car would be incredibly far apart. This distance is even greater on a bigger sphere above the surface of the earth.
They do outline all of that, explaining how it works. The private key pair and secret are never sent to Apple. And yes, it’s end-to-end encrypted of course.

Page 202 of you care to learn how it works.
Yeah I guess I can see that. I’ve always seen the apps as not owing me anything, matches are pretty rare, but it’s kind of fun to get them and chat with random people. Most of the chats never go anywhere but again, I don’t really expect them to. Just putting zero pressure on it has worked for me.
Either I don’t use any online dating and have a zero % chance to meet someone using it, or I use it, and get that up to a solid 1%. Still low, but infinitely better than 0.
On top of being privacy focused themselves, they are only working with AI parters who also pass a third party code review verifying that zero user data is stored.
Shit on Apple for not being repairable, sure. Shit on Apple for their walled garden, sure. But shitting on Apple over privacy is insane. They are they only big tech company that actually cares.
Here is the documentation regarding third party verification of their security claims.

I’m assuming for some reason this is not good enough for you?
Yes, only the person with the key can decrypt. Apple doesn’t have the keys.
Do you know how encryption works?
AirTag location data is encrypted. Apple doesn’t know where they are.
Apple cannot sell your AirTag data, because they don’t know it. It’s all encrypted.
For me the biggest thing would be apps. No way I’d want to re-buy all my apps on the play store.
Feel like I travelled the world reading this thread with the amount of goalpost moving.
Probably makes sense they announced the app locking feature at the same time.
They mentioned in their keynote they will have ways for third part companies to verify their claims of privacy. How this will look I am not sure, but it’s a good step.
