So Apple looked at Microsoft's "Recall" project and thought they could do that in an even creepier way?

Also, some states have laws around recording of conversations without every party's knowledge/consent. How will that be achieved?


> While audio is not recorded and stored, and no speakers are attributed, consider those around you where conversations might be private or sensitive

Apple seems to be putting responsibility for appropriate use of this feature on the user, which will end badly.


This seems like a privacy nightmare for workplaces...



It's going to be weird for relationships: "But you DID say..."


Only the user can access it?

In case you forgot:

HIS LAPTOP'S ENCRYPTED. LET'S BUILD A MILLION-DOLLAR CLUSTER TO CRACK IT.

NO GOOD! IT'S 4096-BIT RSA!

BLAST! OUR EVIL PLAN 1S FOILED!

WHAT WOULD - ACTUALLY HAPPEN:

HIS LAPTOP'S ENCRYPTED. DRUG HIM AND HIT HIM WITH THIS $5 WRENCH UNTIL HE TELLS US THE PASSWORD.

GOT IT.
