The NSA isn't going anywhere.
There's a reason Snowden can't go home.09-18-14 06:52 AMLike 4 - Looks like iphones are now more secure that blackberries. If you have defender enabled you have to allow remote password changes, which seems to mean blackberry can unlock any phone.
I suppose there's potential that there's a certificate that responds to both your BB account and your phone pin, and only your phone has the full cert...but I've never heard this described.09-18-14 07:00 AMLike 3 - Every company probably has a team of lawyers to deal with legal lawful access requests.
The statements are pretty carefully worded. To believe that Apple doesn't comply with local lawful access is rather naive.
There is an article in Reuters about Apple trying to hire a head of law enforcement in China to handle lawful access request.

Take India for example. The Indian government has deals with all the telcoms that they will have access to all info going through their networks. BBM and bis was not going through any of the telcom networks which created a problem for the Indian government. And even then Blackberry dragged it's feet in allowing access to "certain " data. You would be kidding yourself to think by using an iPhone in India you were more secure.
Saudi Arabia same situation. That government also has complete access to telcoms traffic and BBM and bis created a problem.
Blackberry was doing nothing different that the telcom companies were already doing in these countries. Does it make it right? No. But to single them out is unfair.
Apple post a privacy statement basically printing what you want to read and it makes people feel better with an iPhone. It's just that, lip service. You would be a fool to think in this day and age government doesn't have some sort of access to your data be it windows phone, iPhone, Blackberry or Android.

- Didn't get into the Apple Pay discussion, because even as a 10 year BB user, even I can admit the implementation with tokens instead of actual card data & ease of use is brilliantly executed.
However, here we see Apple just applying plausible deniability. Which confirms in no uncertain terms that they & others had access to iOS devices at will, because they held the encryption keys etc.
The below is a very good read: Your iOS 8 Data is Not Beyond Law Enforcement�s Reach� Yet.
Apple wants you to be able access your photos and other information from your desktop while the phone is locked � for ease of use. This, unfortunately, also opens up the capability for law enforcement to also use this mechanism to dump:
Your camera reel, videos, and recordings
Podcasts, Books, and other iTunes media
All third party application data
Existing commercial forensics tools can still acquire these artifacts from your device, even running iOS 8. I have tested with my own private forensics tools, as well, and confirmed this. I dumped all of my third party application data (including caches, databases, screenshots, etc), as well as my camera reel and other media� all within a few minutes and from my locked iPhone running iOS 8 GM.
There are caveats, but it is a good solid read.09-18-14 07:36 AMLike 5 - Hahahaha... Yeah iphones are more secure...
Every other week there is a new video on how to bypass iphone lock screen- how to jailbreak your device and the list goes on. I dont think i've even seen a video about BB devices being bypassed by some 14-year old.09-18-14 07:58 AMLike 5 - Apple - Privacy - Government Information Requests

Also, it says their servers. I'd your data is being stored on servers that apple pays another company for then they are still telling the truth. Not once did they say your data was safe. I'm sure the NSA retrieves all data in transit anyways. So they don't need access to the servers.

When you choose to be a criminal I think you should loose certain rights, not basic human decentcy but definatley privacy as it pertains to the case. just my opinion.

Like, they were only granted access to a small portion of the servers that contained information passing in and out of their country. It isn't like they could have been reading President Obama's BBMs or anything. Am I right or is that way off point?09-18-14 08:48 AMLike 0
- Will the problems ever end ? I guess when you use an old and outdated OS that's years behide the competition you get these never ending issues.

Anyhow, Apple is speaking from both sides of its mouth. Reading in between the lines, Apples does and will still continue to have its doors very wide open for providing requested info as long as Apple has ensured that it is legally covered from subsequent litigations.CerveloJohn and bungaboy like this.09-18-14 09:34 AMLike 2 - Also, they were not given access to the ENTIRE server, right?
