Correct, standard iCloud data is accessible with a warrant. But the UK wanted their own backdoor so they have constant access without a warrant.
But with advanced data protection, Apple can’t provide the data because they don’t have the encryption keys, regardless of a warrant.
Important to note iMessage is always E2E encrypted though, so iMessages cannot be accessed even with a warrant. Advanced data protection just expands that to all iCloud data
The funny thing is, advanced data protection was optional, and not on by default. Apple just stopped offering it in the UK

When it’s enabled, they can’t access iCloud data at all, even with a warrant due to the fact it’s E2E with keys they don’t control. That’s what the UK got really mad about. But Apple shut the whole feature down for the UK in response to the backdoor ask.
It’s not different from the UK banning signal because it’s E2E encrypted and they can’t access it.
They’re likely only backing down now because of consumer/media backlash
You can tell it’s code soup by the smell

91·5 days agoAMD donated the Mantle API to the Khronos group (which Apple has been a part of since 2008 focused on OpenCL) and that group developed Vulkan. Of course Apple has a proprietary version. They have their own silicon, own OS, why wouldn’t they have their own graphics layer? Neither of them are knockoffs. Vulkan is open source and widespread for many applications, Metal is proprietary, and applies purely to Apple OS’s.

It makes it way worse that this was the name of the company

The idea should be to augment healthcare professionals with tools they can use. The hospital will need to have contingencies in place. I agree if that your point is that we can’t replace people with machines. But we can increase effectiveness with them.
Makes sense, wasn’t untrue and I wasn’t criticizing, just wanted to make sure everyone remembers that the problem goes up the chain due to capitalism.
Various companies/games were mentioned in the comments, but I think a good example is Hello Games. Clearly fumbled their game launch and were over ambitious with No Man’s Sky.
But it’s gotten an incredible amount of things that were promised, and many things that weren’t, all as free updates. Sure, they’re still making money, that’s the point, but instead of Micro-transactions, overpriced DLC, fucking over the devs, shutting things down, they just keep rolling. I’m sure they’ve gotten offers of acquisition that were probably very lucrative, but they didn’t take them, and have continued their slow roll of making gamers happy.
It’s a canon event for any

Yeah lemmy is mostly a left echo chamber, which is generally a net positive. But someone like my cousin who still gets their news from Facebook but might want to protest now they are thinking about their views would benefit from this journalism
Thanks for pointing this out. The entire comment section is devolving into discussion about neurodivergence and moisturizer when it’s a huge difference in the two types of microfiber cloths, and one of them grasps little bits of your skin

Ah yes, that’s true as well
