          This article is a clear evidence. If Apple cared, they’d not send sensitive messages in clear text they can just hand over to pigs

          Anyways, are you paid to shill for apple?

          • No, the article is clear evidence that they are imperfect - not that they don’t generally care about user privacy. In general the work they have done on privacy has been pretty good. Apple mandating end-to-end encryption might be something that they sholuld have done - and that’s a reasonable criticism, but it looks like it is possible for individual app makers to encrypt their notifications: . There’s syill the metadata, of course.

            If I am being paid to shill for Apple they are being particularly tardy with their payments. But to answer your question, no - I’m a user who is privacy conscious and thinks Apple does a reasonable job.

            I am, however always interested in knowing about where they are falling down so I can mitigate. General handy wavy accusations don’t really help me practically - or indeed anyone.
