Apple regularly sends costumers data to Government,Wikileaks says

[Dirk41]

Wikileaks released an email allegedly between Lisa Jackson (Apple’s vice president of Environment, Policy and Social Initiatives) and John Polesta ( John Podesta - Wikipedia ) that seems to demonstrate deep cooperation between Apple and Government.

" Strong encryption does not eliminate Apple's ability to give law enforcement meta-data or any of a number of other very useful categories of data "

Thanks for the share

Why am I not so surprised !?

Let's go back to the board where Apple and FBI issues occur.

Same issues, same thing of conspiracy theory, do we need to get alarm?

Ask those respondent and majority do not take it seriously unless involve on crimes.

And i can say Wikileaks is deeply in bed with Russian government and Donald Trump

Nothing really surprising then...After all we all knows that major corporations in US (and in the world) are in bed with their respective government. If not they wouldn't be "Major" but SMB...

What is privacy?

Privacy protects us from abuses of the governments, even if we're not doing anything wrong.
Because if we are seen in everything that we are doing, we are always at risk of correction, judgment, criticism of our individuality and we lose our individuality.

When someone violates our privacy, our freedom is violated.

Who doesn't send info & data to the government? It will be interesting to find out. If they don't send data willingly the data will be taken accordingly. Everything is so simple and virtually.

I do't think "in bed" , I think they are just in one road.
WikiLeaks leaks USA guilty and yup Russia and Donald J Trump used them
problem is come from US government why they do this job...
when USA govenment want defeat their "Opposition" they said: Ha Ha you work for Russia ( all dictatorship in history start from here... )

Prior to the Snowden leaks, I am sure every major corp sent all the data to various governments, Big Brother style, including encryption keys.

Now it is more limited in most cases (except for things like Win 10), example is the recent fight Apple had with the FBI over iPhone access.

I heard than Wikileaks' head has a grudge against Clinton, it was revealed , and the guy is living in Russia...like Snowden.

Very disappointed. I'm sure there are a lot of companies that are doing the same as Apple. Privacy is getting lost

Short of companies like F-Secure and ones that are considered protected due to some of their country's laws, I don't know specifically of a company that doesn't hand it over, and if it is compelled by those secret orders - pretty hard to fight.
