        But they’re different! They’re so privacy focused! They care about their customers more than the other guy!

        …and other such silliness I have heard on certain forums.

      Not trying to be contrarian or argumentative with this, but apple claims that imessage is end to end encrypted and therefore not readable even by them. Do you have evidence to the contrary? Or am I missing some other aspect?

          You can enable Advanced Data Protection and Apple will no longer store the keys, however this is off by default and for something like an iMessage conversation both users would have to enable it for it to mean anything

    This is a rage bait headline. OpenAI has a plugin that you can give access to your messages. The claim that this is somehow different from any other use, or breaks some implied secrecy because it was encrypted, is nonsense. You never have control over what the person at the other end of a conversation does with that conversation and encryption was never meant to address that.

    using apple devices is dangerous and irresponsible and I don’t know how they’re still in business after that bullshit they pulled in the UK

      What bullshit in the UK. Be specific and informative. You mean they discontinued the Advanced Data Protection, yeah it sucks. But the alternative was the UK government forcing them to create a back door, as part of Investigatory Powers Act of 2016, which they rejected.

    Depends on your threat model IMO, but I wouldn’t use either of those services in particular
