Cold Heat, decrypting the Enigma device was child's play compared to what you're talking about in this instance. The user files are either 256 or 512 bit encrypted, are then transmitted, then those are further encrypted with a more complex encryption. Multiply times millions of users. There IS no repeated pattern to attempt to find common patterns. You really don't know what you are talking about.

Gleaning location data of any singular individual from aggregated data of millions of data streams, again without identifiers, is NOT POSSIBLE.

. Just because YOU want to believe in magic does not mean I have to. My head is NOT "buried in Apple blogs" as you so quaintly seem to think. Yours is buried in paranoid fear.

256, 512, and 1024 bit random hexadecimal string passwords are nowhere as easy to "divine" or break, as you seem to think. There is nothing out there that can do. . . and neither the Chinese, nor even our vaunted NSA has that capability to do that in any reasonable time for any data to be useful.

The ludicrous one on this thread is you.

I don't have the time to educate a fool. But just for fun I will address this idiotic comment.

All they have to do is to possess your phone number and call your stupid phone. The tower pings will do the rest. Not that I want to insult the phone by calling it stupid, as it is usually the operator who is.
