iCloud Breach

This was recorded in early September of 2014. Apologies for only getting around to publishing it now. Maybe somewhat timely as there’s new concern being raised on the iCloud backing up your temporary documents, but overall a good thing to keep in mind.

Here’s the wikipedia coverage on the topic: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2014_celebrity_photo_leaks
and this is apple’s response: https://www.cnet.com/news/apple-says-celeb-photo-attack-was-targeted-not-widespread-breach/

We also discussed Exif data and Geolocation tagging photos. Here’s a reference from wikipedia if you want details: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exchangeable_image_file_format#Geolocation
and the Russian selfie taken from the Ukraine: https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2014/08/opposite-of-opsec-russian-soldier-posts-selfies-from-inside-ukraine/

If you’re feeling pressured to send a nekkid selfie, maybe use send this instead
