e2ee is almost meaningless on a closed source app or system... whats stopping them from sending a copy of your files unencrypted?
Well, it would most likely show up in the network traffic if they were doing that for starters. And no one doing security analysis on iOS has ever mentioned that AFAIK. And since Apple bases about 90% of their marketing on protecting your privacy, that would be very bad for them as a company.
I mean, what’s stopping someone poisoning a library on open source? That’s actually provably happened.
Which is not to ding open source, which I quite like too. Just saying you are running certain risks no matter what you choose and in a phone OS, if you just want it to work and not think about it, I personally feel like Apple is a decent risk still.
LOL "We have access to all your data and use it to target ads and any goddamn thing else we want to do, but we don't sell it to third parties, we just take the third party's wishes and shove them down customer throats ourselves! It's not much better, but it is better."
