Apple's Privacy Team Does Deep Dive Into iOS 18 Privacy Features

i'll never understand this. installing almost any ad blocker will show you just how many known tracking servers your apps are contacting. maybe safari blocks them but let's face it, that's much less than half the battle now.

i mean heck, almost every app's "privacy label" shows that so much of your data is collected and linked to you. so how exactly is apple/iphone promoting your privacy?

If you bother to watch the video, you will quickly see, that the Apple employees don’t actually answer a lot (if not most) of the questions asked.

Contrary to the title it's a shallow dip and not a deep dive.

All PR spin to counter their move to use AI. Everybody knows Apple collects your data (and uses it for their own purposes) but they also allow apps to collect data. Of course Apple aren't the bad guys though because they allow you to "turn it off" through privacy settings. So wholesome. Thank you for protecting us, Tim!

So you haven’t watched it then?

Bragging about privacy when putting chatgpt on your devices is a joke.

I guess if you actually looked at how it is being implemented, and watched the video, you would understand that every single time you use ChatGPT, you have to physically press the OK button to allow ChatGPT to steal, I mean harvest, I mean use your data. There are 4 points to privacy and security and knowing when and allowing data to be used is one of them. They have been 100% transparent. But saying or acknowledging that doesn’t suit the agenda of people who refuse to do the research.

The way I look at the Privacy Labels is at least you are being told, and on the rare occasion you find an app that doesn't collect info you can give that app a little extra weight in your decision.

Consumers in the EU will start to lose those with the advent of alt-stores. I am very sure Epic will not force devs to declare the data they hoover as I am sure Epic will be hoovering with the best of them.
