If you truly value your privacy you will not use Apple or apps*

Hakan Ayik, is now the spokesperson for numpties worldwide, a symbol of what not to do.

Governments and corporations hide malicious code in apps and to be more specific closed source or under the banner of ‘Intellectual Property’i.e. proprietary apps.

It can be a specific app, like AN0M in this case or a very popular ‘addictive’ game or so called service.

It’s not about condoning illegal activity, but rather supporting your privacy.

While many apps claim to offer end to end encryption (E2E) , that is not your saving grace, as there’s no easy way for you to verify these claims, given the fact that these apps are closed source, i.e. the programming code cannot be independently verified.

‘Backdoors’ or exploits can be programmed into these apps, where the worst apps for ‘private’ communications are WhatsApp and Messenger, even though they claim to have E2E encryption, where others have they ‘keys’ to unlock the encrypted messages.

ANY Apple offered communications app is also not truly conducive to your privacy.

If you truly want privacy, an Apple device is not the one to achieve this on.

Open source apps on the other hand are peer reviewed, where one can see exactly where the data goes and what sort of encryption is in place, where the next point of call would be the integrity of the device itself.

* apps - that are closed source.
