Apple is taking steps to improve security in the wake of the furor generated by hackers’ posting nude photos of celebs on the Internet, CEO Tim Cook said in an interview. Apple will alert users via email and push notifications when someone tries to restore iCloud data to a new device.
It's not Apples Fault- kind of..
Privacy on the Internet- privacy of ANY kind on the internet is a myth. On the "stolen" photos thing? Was it teenage boys desperately working to find just what they were looking for or worse than that, bottom feeder paparazzi?
News sources today are screaming about another major retailer being hacked and looting a bazillion customer accounts. No privacy there.
How about substantial allegations that government agencies ARE recording YOUR phone calls, emails, and financial transactions? Where is the privacy there?
Even encryption is fallible and some commercial encryption vendors have been caught collaborating with three-letter government agencies.
My stock email signature is at the end. It is my opinion on privacy on the internet.
