A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.
Some Rules
- Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn't great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post
- Don't promote proprietary software
- Try to keep things on topic
- If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered
- Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience
- Be nice :)

Proton and Wire didn't share any decrypted ciphertexts, Wire shared a ProtonMail address and Proton an iCloud Address that they had set as a recovery method.
Personal info like where they live came from Apple.
I know wire and proton are encrypted. Apple services certainly aren't though.
They didn't require any encrypted data. Apple has your name and payment details unencrypted, as they need them to charge you.
Most Apple services can be encrypted including iCloud. Basically email and calendaring are not covered.

If you set it up as “advanced” then only you hold the recovery keys.
