A certain fruit company knows about you WAY more than you can imagine, and most of the information is accessible to even the lowest ranks of support. And yeah, my NDA is finally over.

When you say fruit company, do you mean Apple or Chiquita?

Is it time to update the banana wars wiki page?

The iCloud support app? I’ll say it if you won’t. Apple needs to be shamed into doing something about that

Can you elaborate? What is the difference cloud support app and what specifically is the issue?

When a report came out on car security, one thing which stood out was how any technician of any of the client car manufacturers could just browse through gps data, cameras etc for millions of customers' cars.

One of the many ways they found out was because one system accidentally gave access to customers as well as techs (pro tip: remember to check group membership when doing LDAP authorisation!)

A lot of people are aware of this, but you're right to assume most fruit booters have no idea. Most bought the PR push rebranding Apple as the leader in personal privacy without do much as giving it a minute of thought.

It's wild how dumb countless people are about technology.
