So the vulnerability here was the iphone, not the app.
What if I told you on some phones, an Ai agent is watching your every keystroke, making e2e entirely moot?
What if I told you that if anyone in the chatrooms you visit has one, then the entire chatroom is compromised, you included?
Food for thought.
Which ones? Do you have an article I can read more?
This would either be opt-in or up to your device. I’d suspect any Pixel, Samsung or iPhone with Ai assisted accessibility features enabled to be likely targets.
My statement, in truth was more of a “water is wet”, broad stroke. If some feature of your phone involves an Ai agent reading your screen, then I hate to say this, but I’m afraid an Ai agent may be reading your screen.
When it does, whether it does becomes irrelevant if it can, and I don’t trust ifs. I directly tell my iPhone and average Android users on XMPP that they should know not to discuss much more than they would in a crowded mall, if that. You’re at the mercy of your manufacturer for any illusion of privacy you believe you may have. In more truth, we all are, me on a Oneplus 11 on Lineage, just maybe slightly less so. No Ai, at least.
I read the researchers could retrieve the messages from a database that kept the push Notifications. I wonder how this behaves for Android.
yes
Heck, android even suggests what to reply based on your typing history.
Dunno why @frongt@lemmy.zip “unworth reading⇩” you.
Anyone know if this retained on android notifications ?
Notification history exists on Android. It can be disabled though.
