This guy doesn't deserve a cent not necessarily because apple has no wrong doing I don't know if they do but because he is an idiot. Everyone knows you only contact hookers from a secondary texting app using a disposable number and a fake name, according to a friend who told me this.

It’s not about that. It’s about the transparency and customer expectations. If it only deleted on the current device, that’s fine, but it should tell the user that the message has only been deleted on this device.

I’m sure it’s a “feature” cause people were un-intentionally deleting stuff. Hell, I’ve deleted photos only to find them in the “deleted” album and then restored them. I’m sure they know how to, it’s just a matter of where on the priority list it is, and what new “feature” the PMs promised the stakeholders would be ready by the next update.

Sure, but you can still get close. Otherwise cloud file sharing services like OneDrive, Box, would never exist. They can clearly sync the message to all devices so they should be able to mark it for deletion on all devices as well. There’s a difference between implementing the functionality to delete a message and it occasionally not working due to uncertainty, and not implementing the functionality at all.

Because Apple's platform design is terrible. It makes a ton of things easier to use one Apple ID across multiple devices as a family. We use multiple IDs in our family, and this means having to remember which ID was used to buy what app on each of the kid's iPads. And occasionally I have to walk over to have my wife enter her password, because one of the apps on "her" account on one of the iPads needs an update.

I read somewhere (can't find it now, of course) that it wasn't a case of you deleting something and then Apple keeping them around somewhere secret. In actuality, for those pictures, what probably happened was when you tried to delete them, the records of those photos in a database on your phone got corrupted when changing their state. Normally they get marked for deletion in the database, and then they're deleted. So they were *marked* for deletion, removing them from view in your library, but the *cleanup* of removing them from the database afterward never happened because of the corrupted records, so they stuck around on the hard drive. Then, an OS update later "cleaned up" that database, effectively undeleting those previously deleted photos as an unexpected side effect. I don't know if that's the case, because I don't work for Apple, but it passes the smell test for me as a tech industry worker (not BIG tech, but tech).

My BIL was treated like a child slave for years and years by my sister. BIL is 15 years older than my sister. He now resides in a hospital receiving care because he's had two strokes and now has Aphasia. He can't walk nor feed himself. My sister abused her husband physically, emotionally, mentally and verbally but he was extremely passive and didn't stand up to my sister. She took advantage of his kindness and everyone is sickened by what she did. My BIL was in the Navy for many years and was a Master Chief on a submarine. When he got out of the Navy he became a teacher and an ROTC instructor. My sister demanded a lot from her husband. She never had to work and got pretty much everything she wanted. Karma is coming for her though and I can't wait. I forgot to mention that my sister didn't 'allow' my BIL to visit his adult kids and grandchildren. She never let him do anything but all the while, my sister was screwing every man she could find.

Right on all counts except the last. If the bits are flipped it's gone gone. No lab, no multi-billion dollar NSA setup, nothing is getting it back. The trick is making sure it's actually overwritten with a full format or on an SSD having TRIM be correctly implemented by the manufacturer, in which case it'll happen automatically shortly after that file was orphaned by a deleted partition table entry.

Not quite. If you just enable iMessage on your phone, it only transits through Apple's servers. In this setup Apple does not keep a "mailbox" for your messages that you can download later. If you add a separate device, it will work as an independent client receiving the same messages. If you lose both devices and don't have a backup, you lose those messages. However if you enable "Enable Messages in iCloud" this will keep devices in sync. In this setup Apple does manage sync state between devices. It says [on this site:](https://support.apple.com/guide/iphone/delete-messages-and-attachments-iph2c9c4bfcb/ios) > If you use Messages in iCloud, deleting a message or conversation on your iPhone deletes it from all your devices where Messages in iCloud is on. See Keep your messages up to date with iCloud in the iCloud User Guide. > Note: Deleting messages only affects your iPhone and other Apple devices where you’re signed in with the same Apple ID. You can’t delete messages, attachments, and conversations for anyone else. > To delete everything (not just your messages), see Erase iPhone. Sounds like the person in this lawsuit had iMessage set up on his Mac, but did not enable the "Enable Message in iCloud", causing the Mac to act like an independent client.

I think eventually yes, because there is a coat associated with it. However, there is also value for AI training.

I also work for Apple and I cannot tell you how many issues we have because people come in and don't understand that they should have their own individual Apple IDs. Like, people set up their accounts incorrectly sharing an Apple ID with several other people and then get mad at us because their shit isn't working the way it's intended to. When we tell them they need to make their own individual apple IDs, they act like we're telling them they need to get kidney surgery or something. It's wild how apples entire business model is making technology accessible and easy to use, and yet somehow that only causes people to be even less technologically literate and get even more upset when they do things that make the devices work incorrectly.

Also, buying a new phone is an absolute nightmare if you don't have individual Apple IDs.

They similarly had no concept of boundaries (the guy had access to all of his girlfriend’s social media accounts, banking info, tax info etc) and also had no friends other than me and my partner. People that have no concept of boundaries find it hard to make friends. It *can* be a sign of narcissism.

That's not why they want access to the devices, and not only do the carriers save them, the interchange companies also do. And the service providers that apps that send them do. In theory, law enforcement wouldn't be able to see them without a warrant, but that's only in theory and once they have a warrant, your carrier, the interchange carrier and the destination carrier will all have records of them. (This is something I had to explain repeatedly to customers in the past who were sending HIPAA-violating PII via SMS and MMS.) Really, MMS is even worse because the contents of the message sit in yet another set of storage servers, not just transit servers. An MMS is logically the equivalent of your telco uploading the message to a webserver and texting a link to the recipient. I mean, more than logically -- that's effectively exactly what it is. You just never see the link.

Disregarding the potential for abuse and overreach, the best argument I've ever heard for curtailing surveillance and imo a perfect counter to "If you're not doing anything wrong..." is the example of shower singing: Many of us don't like to sing in public. Maybe we are embarrassed at our skill, maybe we just don't like the attention it would bring. But a lot of the same people *will* sing in the shower, when alone. We are simply different people when we don't feel surveilled, regardless of whether we are doing anything wrong/illegal or not. Your brother has obviously been accustomed to always being under observation, and I cannot imagine that it hasn't had an effect on your interactions, but I also imagine it's salvable if he's able to set some boundaries.

Yeah, well, that's common knowledge for tech hobbyists. But also, the point is, delete means the directory is gone. If it appears back as it was, without the use of a recovery software, that's extremely weird. Also side note, typically SSDs have a lot less *extra* capacity. Compared to older HDDs. So it's a bug where : 1. It doesn't even delete directory. Or 2. It does a recovery level scan of the drive randomly. Of course, managing these kind of basic system functions, is something everyone else figured out decades ago. Apple will innovate deleting stuff in IOS 19 maybe. Just wait.
