Is iOS encryption going to really keep NSA snooping at bay?
A few days back, the all mighty iPhone 6 was revealed to the world.
In between all the razzle dazzle launch, one feature of Iphone 6 caught my attention.
The question that came into my mind is, is Apple wasting its time?
Encrypted data on your phone cannot solve either of the two problems faced by a typical user.
The NSA tracks a users activity, not the stuff that is kept in the iPhone or the machine.
And as far as the iCloud hack goes, the data sent to iCloud isencrypted in transit and storage.
So how is this even a solution?
Security measures!!!
If anything, it only shows that Apple thinks its users are stupid.
These security measures are all bark and no bite.
Law enforcement agencies including NSA have complained that Apple will be protecting criminals through this encryption measure.
Even the new encryption system adopted in iOS 8 is vulnerable in some circumstances.
If iClouds was secure why did Apple release a patch?
Apple seems to be living in a dreamy utopian world!
Anyone with a working brain can get access to even your minutest digital details in todays world.
Stop dreaming, Apple!
Apple has gained praises for making encryption a default feature.
Care to give it a second thought ?
