Encryption does not automatically mean secure. Encryptions can and will be broken. Any flaw in their implementation (which nobody can verify) would render encryption useless…

I wonder where you'd draw the line.

Do you also distrust TLS for example, and therefore refuse to use the internet? What about AES/Chacha for full-disk encryption?

Sure, but it's more than a promise that they won't look. Apple currently believes it's impossible to look.

  • Apple is not a person, they don’t “believe” anything.

    As a corporation, they “calculate” what they can say without getting into more trouble than they’re willing to entertain.

    • Apple is a group of people. It's not run by AI. I was specifically talking about the people in Apple who work on the feature and wrote the documentation for the feature.
