Yeah what's the surprise there? Apple devices are known for their privacy practices....NOT!
Huh? Is this some random hate or is there proof? What mega corporation would be better?
Try Pixel with GrapheneOS.
Just don’t ever communicate with the lead dev, and pray he doesn’t delete the update keys again.
He quit like few months ago.
One would think if he quit like they said, his contributions would have also stopped.
Oh?
The issue is that it is illegal and enforceable in the EU if I can prove it. So no, there is currently no proof that this has actually been done by apple and if it was, we‘d have a field day.
You'd better read carefully the terms of service before you click on accept when you get a new device..
Yeah, no. Nobody does and companies cant just spy on you.
Then you are naive by choice my dude. You should better read some relevant articles going on around for years.
I‘m not naive. I am entitled to human rights. There is a huge difference.
I simply wont accept that companies are allowed to do this and I‘m actively suing and working against this, every way I can, so are hundreds if not thousands of others.
So no, I dont need to read 10 or 100 pages of „contract“ just because a company wants me to not do it and blows up the contract. I sue and the company has to back down. With small companies this works immediately, with large ones we just need more folks with this mindset.
So, before I block you for insulting and degrading language, here the explanation:
When you make business with companies, these companies have certain rights, same as you but not the same as you, the individual.
A company is overly powerful so consumer protection kicks in and forces them to treat you fairly. For example, they cant put something in their contracts that one sidedly benefits them and is bad for you (acting in bad faith). If they do this the contract becomes unenforceable.
Thats how I already sued a couple companies and continue to do so. The same goes for gdpr enforcement. If a company does stupid things with my data, I tell them to stop, let them send me all my data and then delete it. This is a massive amount of work for them and some have real issues with doing this. Also, if they dont they pay a large fine.
So, as you dont seem to know a lot about consumer protection, I hope you educate yourself and stop insulting folks.
Be better.
