iphone cloud backups are encrypted, and can be turned off very easily. Local backups to a pc can also be encrypted if you want.
Encrypted doesnt necessarily matter. I dont trust apple to not give up the keys.
They’ve always refused in the past…
Because guess what? They don't have them. They don't want them. Apple's business is selling hardware, not collecting your data that they would then be liable for. Their business model is not predicated on data mining and collection. Google's is.
This is not to absolve Apple; they are after all a major corporation and therefore inherently evil prima facie. But I don't worry about them selling or leaking my data.
I know for a while that was true?
That didn't stop Apple from handing over backups to the FBI that were swiftly decrypted after several high profile incidents (like the San Bernadino shooting), and I assume it would be even less difficult for them to fork over info for another Snowden if they use Apple products.
Didn’t Apple deny the FBI access for the San Bernardino shooting?
Quick edit; yeah, you can stop spouting bullshit, the FBI hacked in WITHOUT Apple’s help.
Apple provided the icloud backups off of the device. Apple did not provide the decryption key for unlocking the phone directly.
