    The bad guy didn't have to register a recovery email with Proton Mail.
    Ask me how I know this.

    Also the bad guy could have used Tor for his Proton Mail activities.
    Again, ask me how I know this.

    The main problem with his iCloud account, if we assume he owned it due to owning an iOS device, is there is no privacy possible on iOS devices.

    Every other common consumer operating system will easily allow you to NOT register the device to a mothership tracking account (yes, even Win11).

    Not only is it only Apple who requires that you be logging into that
    mothership tracking account 24/7/365, but Apple will unilaterally brick
    your device if you refuse to constantly log into the device.

    Again, ask me how I know this.

    <https://i.postimg.cc/Y9kkj19v/appleid12.jpg> Apple tracking server login

    Not only is no account needed to use an Android phone (or Windows/Linux),
    but Apple literally inserts your unique tracking ID into EVERY app you
    install on your iOS device so that they can track app activity.

    Why do you think Apple requires you to be logged into their servers?
    Why do you think Apple adds a unique tracking ID to every app installed?

    Apple's lack of privacy is coupled with an immense lack of security too. Consider that the iPhone is the most exploited phone in phone history!
    <https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog>

    You can't have any privacy or security on any iOS device, by design.
    Note that Apple also provides the worst hotfix support in the industry.
    <https://screenrant.com/apple-product-security-update-lifespan/>
    <https://hothardware.com/news/apple-admits-only-fully-patches-security-flaws-in-latest-os-releases>
    <https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2022/10/apple-clarifies-security-update-policy-only-the-latest-oses-are-fully-patched/>

    Having proved Apple has the worst hotfix support in the industry, and
    having shown as a result the iPhone is the most exploited phone, and
    knowing that only Apple inserts your unique AppleID into every single app
    you install on the device, and knowing that Apple alone requires you to constantly log into their mothership tracking servers....

    Can you trust Apple?

    Say what you will about that, but Apple is uniquely a piece of work,
    in the industry. Look at the cost of options for storage on an iMac,
    and tell me with a straight face you'd buy anything, from that goofy
    company.

    It's not only the cost of portable and internal storage that Apple jacks up
    the price on, but Apple refuses to allow the users any privacy on iOS.

    If you're using only your iOS device and you want to log into your Proton
    Mail account, you can't get on iOS the anonymity the Tor Project provides.

    https://support.torproject.org/tormobile/tormobile-3/

    "Apple requires browsers on iOS to use something called Webkit,
    which prevents [ANY!] browser from having the same privacy
    protections as does the Tor Browser."

    The only place iOS is said to be private/secure is in Apple advertisements.
    In the real world, iOS is Swiss Cheese in terms of glaringly open holes.

    "The two biggest challenges Tor developers on iOS face are Apple's
    requirement that all browsers use the iOS WebKit rendering engine,
    and the inability to run Tor as a system-wide service or daemon on iOS." https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2017/01/tor-onion-browser-ios-vpn/

    The result is there is no privacy nor any anonymity possible on iOS.

    He's right that, of all companies, Apple is the least trustworthy.

    Since Apple _requires_ you to log into your account 24/7/365, if you don't continually log into that account, Apple will unilaterally lock you out.

    Once Apple locks you out of your own device, take a guess at what Apple's officialy policy is for them allowing you back into your own device.

    Yup.

    You have to SHOW APPLE YOUR GOVERNMENT ID!
    Then they record it.

    They tell you this at the Genius bar that it's "for your safety".

    No other company but Apple does this huge invasion of privacy.

    Christ, are people putting up with this shit, just for the great
    privilege of running Apple's crapware? My self-assembled Linux box
    (or Winblows, if I went back to it) gives me a lot more freedom.

    OTOH, I was chewed out PERSONALLY by JWZ for running as root. Takes all kinds.

    I test phones and tablets. That's why I have iOS.

    But that's why I'm well aware that there is nothing an iOS device can do
    that Android doesn't already do - and yet - the opposite is not true.

    There's so much that Android does that iOS can't do that it's just sad.

    The iPhone is a barely functional toy which is set up as a dumb terminal. Nothing works inside that iPhone unless you log into Apple's mainframes.

    The iPHone can't even run a system-wide firewall, nor do automatic call recording, nor can it re-install apps on another phone without the same
    AppleID nor can it spoof gps location, nor can it provide real tor
    anonymity, nor can it save photos given any desired file-naming format, nor
    can it graphically debug cellular and wi-fi signals, nor can it set the
    default dialer, or the default contacts manager or the default camera app,
    etc.

    The fact iOS can't do what every other OS easily does proves it's a toy.

    Luckily, on Android all free apps install on any Android phone, which is a valuable feature that apparently is "not needed" & "not wanted" only for
    iOS (since every other platform easily installs any free installer on any device, no matter what login ID is used on that device - except for iOS).

    It's no longer shocking how much of a dumb terminal the toy iPhone is...

    Why can't iOS save photos to a user-defined timedate format like Android?
    Where are the wifi graphical debuggers on iOS (hint, it's brain dead).
    Where are the encryption container tools on iOS (hint, it's brain dead).
    Where are the automatic call recorder tools on iOS (hint, it's brain dead). Where are the system wide foss firewalls on iOS (hint, it's brain dead).
    Where are the fake gps spoofing apps on iOS (hint, it's brain dead).
    Where are the true ad free youtube clones on iOS (hint, it's brain dead).
    Where are the historical IPA backup tools on iOS (hint, it's brain dead).
    Where are the system wide foss ad blocking on iOS (hint, it's brain dead). Where's the real foss torproject tor browser on iOS (hint, no privacy!).
    etc.

    The fact remains there is _zero_ app functionality on iOS not on Android.

    The reason is logical, obvious, and devilishly simple in nature...
    a. The _market_ determines the app functionality (not the OEM).
    b. Apple drastically limits what apps the market can provide.
    c. Google can't.

    The part you leave out:

    'iCloud Private Relay is designed to protect your privacy by ensuring
    that when you browse the web in Safari, no single party — not even Apple
    — can see both who you are and what sites you're visiting.

    When Private Relay is enabled, your requests are sent through two
    separate, secure internet relays.

    1. Your IP address is visible to your network provider and to the first
    relay, which is operated by Apple. Your DNS records are encrypted, so
    neither party can see the address of the website you’re trying to visit.

    2/ The second relay, which is operated by a third-party content
    provider, generates a temporary IP address, decrypts the name of the
    website you requested, and connects you to the site.

    I don't have a beef with that, but it's costly, you have to admit. I

    Not really very much more in the grand scheme of things.

    have a computer that's now three years old, that kicks much ass, and
    didn't cost me an arm and a leg to assemble, even including the retail Windows license I used at first.

    Except you had to assemble it...

    ...which means you had to have the expertise to assemble it.

    Most people DON'T have that expertise, nor do they want to acquire it.

    Why?

    If you're willing to accept their minimal offerings, it might be
    somewhat affordable, but to what end? Why is macOS so great?

    It's hardly "minimal", sunshine.

    Take a look at the benchmarks.

    And what makes macOS "so great" is this:

    I have spent many years supporting companies and individuals in the use
    of technology—primarily computers and networking...

    ...and while I technically still have clients who use macOS, they just
    never seem to need my help anymore.



    have a computer that's now three years old, that kicks much ass, and
    didn't cost me an arm and a leg to assemble, even including the retail
    Windows license I used at first.

    Except you had to assemble it...

    ...which means you had to have the expertise to assemble it.

    Most people DON'T have that expertise, nor do they want to acquire it.


    I know, but it's amazing how terrible preassembled Winblows computers
    are. I just couldn't put the money toward a Dell/etc., I had to force
    myself to assemble it from parts.

    I've got a computer that is going serve me well for at least 5 years...

    ...and while I have the necessary expertise to assemble my own PC, I
    want one that runs a (far, far) better OS than Windows or Linux.

    He's right that, of all companies, Apple is the least trustworthy.

    Since Apple _requires_ you to log into your account 24/7/365, if you don't >>continually log into that account, Apple will unilaterally lock you out.

    Once Apple locks you out of your own device, take a guess at what Apple's >>officialy policy is for them allowing you back into your own device.

    Yup.

    You have to SHOW APPLE YOUR GOVERNMENT ID!
    Then they record it.

    They tell you this at the Genius bar that it's "for your safety".

    No other company but Apple does this huge invasion of privacy.

    Christ, are people putting up with this shit, just for the great
    privilege of running Apple's crapware? My self-assembled Linux box
    (or Winblows, if I went back to it) gives me a lot more freedom.

    You're gullible. Logging into Apple servers is *optional* and always has
    been. He's been corrected numerous times on these lies and just keeps
    repeating them because he knows people like you will fall for it without question. Good work.

    My 4K monitor was $200 from Newegg, it works fine with Linux. I don't

    Fair enough. I can admit a mistake. I'm not an Apple fan, but I do appreciate the, intelligent, people who use their stuff.

    Notice how these uneducated Apple religious zealots show no proof?
    All they do, day in and day out, is deny how Apple iPhones really work.

    If logging into Apple servers is "optional", ask this uneducated ignorant

    What this uneducated ignorant Jolly Roger Apple zealot will say is "nobody needs a default messenger" and "nobody wants a default messenger" app.

    The iPhone is nothing more than a toy operating system, but even so, at
    least it acts like a dumb terminal when it logs into Apple mainframes
    (which have to be logged into constantly, 24/7/365 for the walled garden to function).

    If you don't log into Apple mainframe tracking servers 24/7/365, then all

    The reason is logical, obvious, and devilishly simple in nature...
    a. The _market_ determines the app functionality (not the OEM).
    b. Apple drastically limits what apps the market can provide.
    c. Google can't.

    Quite interesting. Certainly, I have a Galaxy S phone, not Apple's
    odd-to-me product.

    Do you ever organize your home screen the way you want on that Galaxy?
    The iPhone can't do that.

    Do you ever install an app onto that Galaxy after downloading that app APK
    from another platform (and perhaps stored on a USB drive)?
    The iPhone can't do that.

    Do you ever plug in your Galaxy over USB to a PC to copy files _to_ that
    Galaxy device? The iPhone can't do that.

    Do you ever list the apps that you have installed on your Galaxy to a file
    so that you can send that editable list to someone else to populate theirs?
    The iPhone can't do that.

    Do you ever just set a different default camera app or a default messenger
    app than the one Samsung gave you on that Galaxy? The iPhone can't do that.

    The iPhone can't do thousands of fundamental things that every other OS
    does, which is the evidence for the statement that an iPhone is a mere toy.

    Not only is the iPhone a toy that only looks like a real phone, but the
    iPhone is also a dumb terminal in that nothing you like works outside the walled garden (which requires you to log into Apple servers 24/7/365).

    If you owned both platforms, which I do, you'd know this, but the ignorant uneducated Apple zealots you're conversing with know nothing of Android.

    OK, interesting, but what is special about macOS for that?

    You were talking about "Apple's offerings" which includes hardware,
    and Apple Silicon Macs are what enable what I'm talking about.

    I mean, I realize Apple has a certain focus on these pro features,
    but it's not as if it couldn't be developed on another platform.

    Other platforms gulp power like there's no tomorrow and put out way
    more heat to offer the same performance.

    Ah, I get you, yeah, I like the idea, frankly, of a Mac *laptop*,
    because of the heat generation issue. Apple is the first to offer a commercial ARM system. I don't need it for a desktop, but it'd be
    great for a laptop. And can run Winblows in a VM, so I'd have Unix
    and Win apps available. However, I don't like using laptops, so I
    haven't done this, but it's just the thought.

    You're aware Apple makes desktop computers too, right? The Mac mini
    starts at $599.

    Except you had to assemble it...

    ...which means you had to have the expertise to assemble it.

    Most people DON'T have that expertise, nor do they want to acquire it.

    I know, but it's amazing how terrible preassembled Winblows computers
    are. I just couldn't put the money toward a Dell/etc., I had to force
    myself to assemble it from parts.

    I haven't assembled a Linux box in years. My last half-dozen or so computers have been laptops, and it's pretty easy to slick Windows and install
    Linux.

    The fact is you ignorant uneducated Apple religious zealots lied for years claiming Apple fully supported more than one release - yet that's wrong.

    You uneducated religious Apple zealots know NOTHING about iOS.

    You lied for years claiming iOS was more secure even though iOS has over
    ten times the exploits in the wild than Android has. Ten times more!

    You lied for years claiming iOS has privacy when it is the only operating system that inserts your unique Apple ID tracking number into every app.

    iOS is the only operating system that doesn't have the privacy of Tor.
    You lied for years about all of this, and more, Jolly Roger.

    Say what you will about that, but Apple is uniquely a piece of work,
    in the industry. Look at the cost of options for storage on an iMac,
    and tell me with a straight face you'd buy anything, from that goofy
    company.

    You make a very good point.

    Ask me how I know this.

    Also the bad guy could have used Tor for his Proton Mail activities.
    Again, ask me how I know this.

    The main problem with his iCloud account, if we assume he owned it due
    to owning an iOS device, is there is no privacy possible on iOS
    devices.

    Every other common consumer operating system will easily allow you to
    NOT register the device to a mothership tracking account (yes, even
    Win11).

    Not only is it only Apple who requires that you be logging into that mothership tracking account 24/7/365, but Apple will unilaterally
    brick your device if you refuse to constantly log into the device.

    Again, ask me how I know this.

    Apple tracking server login

    Not only is no account needed to use an Android phone (or
    Windows/Linux), but Apple literally inserts your unique tracking ID
    into EVERY app you install on your iOS device so that they can track
    app activity.

    Why do you think Apple requires you to be logged into their servers?
    Why do you think Apple adds a unique tracking ID to every app
    installed?

    Apple's lack of privacy is coupled with an immense lack of security
    too. Consider that the iPhone is the most exploited phone in phone
    history!
    <https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog>

    You can't have any privacy or security on any iOS device, by design.
    Note that Apple also provides the worst hotfix support in the
    industry.
    <https://screenrant.com/apple-product-security-update-lifespan/>
    <https://hothardware.com/news/apple-admits-only-fully-patches-security

    <https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2022/10/apple-clarifies-security-upda
    te-policy-only-the-latest-oses-are-fully-patched/>

    Having proved Apple has the worst hotfix support in the industry, and
    having shown as a result the iPhone is the most exploited phone, and
    knowing that only Apple inserts your unique AppleID into every single
    app you install on the device, and knowing that Apple alone requires
    you to constantly log into their mothership tracking servers....

    Can you trust Apple?

    That's horrible! Obviously not!
