Is there a reason the notifications go through Apple/Google servers instead of directly from the services themselves?
Although, that wouldn’t necessarily stop the government from requesting the data from those services instead.
Either way, Wyden is continuing to be the top senator/politician on digital privacy for over a decade at this point.
In Google’s case, it’s to reduce power usage. Having to listen to one service only (FCM) uses less power than if each app/service was listening on their own. They state this in their website
I imagine Apple has similar reasons for that.
Ha, good luck, I’m behind 7 layers of ungoogle
(okay, for real, I just hate push notifs for digital wellbeing reasons)
