This information will likely not be a surprise to anyone who has been paying attention to Big Tech’s increasing propensity to violate the privacy of users and use their data for questionable reasons, but here we are.
Two days ago, the tech website Venture Beat noticed an eyebrow-raising bit in the latest update to Apple’s privacy policy:
"Apple’s promise of transparency regarding user data means that any new privacy policy update might reveal that it’s doing something new and weird with your data. Alongside yesterday’s releases of iOS 12, tvOS 12, and watchOS 5, Apple quietly updated some of its iTunes Store terms and privacy disclosures, including one standout provision: It’s now using an abstracted summary of your phone calls or emails as an anti-fraud measure."

I know we have the ability to decode electric typewriters by how they sound. Old school. Lol
Well, I don't see them staying together long. . . he'll get tired of the barbell in her tongue, and the other piercing, before too long. . . or she will. . . after he runs out of money.
Can’t disagree with anything there. Typical cycle.
“....Apple says that information about how you use your device, including the approximate number of phone calls or emails you receive is used to compute the device trust score when you make a purchase.”
WTH does that mean? Trusted to do what?
Isn’t that the best way to enslave someone? Get them to vie for some sort of reward as you interfere in their rights and privacy....ask any decent psychologist about whether or not this is a way to train people to be your pet rats. I think there’s way more of Apple in China than just manufacturing plants.....
We know it’s you that works at Apple
“How Chicom of them.”
Yeah, it’s nefarious. Just like the commies at eBay having seller ratings... (rolls eyes)
Ask the Chinese if they “get it”?
Do Falun Gong get to keep all their organs?
If not the actual iCloud keys (I’ll take your word on that), do you think Apple might hand over specific curated data to the Chinese government in exchange for favorable treatment?
Like, oh say, secretly handing over a list of customers whose decrypted iCloud data matches templates of Falun Gong activity or sympathy?
If the US determines that Apple or any other company within reach of US jurisdiction is engaging in such practices, the executive leadership should be prosecuted and all assets confiscated. If we don’t presently have law to that effect now, we should fix that pronto.
