Police State

Apple denies iCloud was hacked. It appears the celebrity files may have been hacked from iCloud using police technology.
""For Apple, the use of government forensic tools by criminal hackers raises questions about how cooperative it may be with Elcomsoft. The Russian company’s tool, as Zdziarski describes it, doesn't depend on any 'backdoor' agreement with Apple and instead required Elcomsoft to fully reverse engineer Apple’s protocol for communicating between iCloud and its iOS devices. But Zdziarski argues that Apple could still have done more to make that reverse engineering more difficult or impossible.""
What a surprise. More.

My first thought was the NSA hacked the nude photos.

NYPD claims it's a protected minority under hate crime laws.

Google tries to redact transcript to hide its transcription of emails. This redacting transcripts stuff must have become a new normal. I don't understand why Google did this. Everybody knows they read emails.
