Basically anything else you use here in the west sends all data to Amazon-controlled servers. But they make sure its encrypted so only them can see it. Nice.
There’s zero relationship between data being unencrypted and it being sent to chinese servers.
If you use a chinese service it’s obvious that data is going to be sent to a chinese server and that the chinese server would be able to read it.
Unencrypted data transfer, it’s a totally different thing. I would like to see if it’s truly unencrypted or just not using apple proprietary encryption.
I luckily don’t own any apple product, but I have deepseek app on my android device. If I’m bored later I’ll try to intercept my own data to see if it’s truly unencrypted. This is easy to test. If it’s not true that newspaper is going to my “block list” asap.
surprised pikachu no one could see this coming from a few thousand miles away
Absolutely “shocked” I tell you.
loudly places hand on side of face
The hell? There’s no reason to use plain HTTP instead of HTTPS.
And symmetric encryption is wildly irresponsible as well.
Not for s second do I believe this was a accidental oversight.
I am sure they had very good reasons, all alligned with their actual interests with no thought spared to even consider consequences for small fish users.
This is dumb.
Even if you encrypt network traffic, the receiving server still knows what you’re doing. All it does is prevent third parties from snooping.
Usually.
Yes, so not only are they doing something shady, they’re doing something shady and exposing your data to anyone wanting to snoop it. What’s dumb about criticising the latter part?
