I heard that and I was excited for him! I think Sun could do a lot and offer people private alternatives vs what’s out there now. I’m not aware of the laws but Sun seems to be a really smart guy and I don’t think he would have a problem with following the laws and making a truly private experience.

Thank you for helping us through this! So much to learn!

I went to fruux for my calendar and contacts last year. Went down the rabbit whole on contacts too. ;-) I just found out they run on AWS, so maybe it's not THE best solution ... Thanks for your sharing your voyage on privacy - I learned so much from you already it's crazy!

I’ve been looking for a video like this. Looking forward to all this info 😊✌️

Sun I’m curious how your stance has changed since Apple announced Advanced Data Protection?

Looking forward to the alternatives. Good seeing you

Just found this video and I'm already a fan, thank you for this video... Very helpful and I like it!

What do You say about the latest update with the extended Data protection option and withdrawal of Your personal apps from apple servers? I moved everything btw to proton cause I didn't feel that comfortable anymore with icloud

Thank you for your work.

I think it would be awesome if you created a small starter series for people just getting introduced to the privacy and secutiry world and striking a balance with the convenience factor. Videos like this are great but IMO end up trageting a very small group of people. I find it hard to just have people switch search engine and browser; there is no way in hell I'll get them to dump icloud (including myself). Things like the Firefox videos are an awesome example (and the views show it) of things anyone can do without impacting their everyday experience. You also had a really good video on how to set-up Big Sur but it was sadly taken down. Other good examples are your password and adobe series. I am no expert in this field but I know very well the average person and how little they care about online privacy. Simple privacy advices that don't comprimise too much the conveniance factor would go a long way to help a larger audience become more privacy conscious.

Hi! very instructive video !what do you think about the filen cloud, wich is based in germany and support end to end encryption

When I decided to pull all my data off iCloud about 5 years ago, the most annoying thing was having to click on every image and video file and drag them individually in order to download them onto an external drive. Not sure how it is now, but it was clear to me then through this and a few other experiences that Apple did not intend on making leaving iCloud an easy task

I think it has gotten even more difficult in the intervening years. The lack of an export capability with Apple apps frustrates me to no end. iMessages are particularly terrible - there is absolutely no way to export them beyond iCloud - without a third-party app installed with maximum permissions on a Mac or PC and given access to the iPhone.

Any changes/updates to this video after Advanced Data Protection for iCloud? that enables end-to-end encryption for pretty much all Apple services including iCloud Backup and iCloud Drive with the exception of Mail, Contacts and Calendar.

When I click on the links to your website in your KZread profile, it opens in a browser within the KZread app, is that safe? Does that undo your efforts to secure the content and use cases?

Does Apple supports end-2-end encryption now?

Sun what do you think now that Apple has recently introduced optional ‘Advanced Data Protection’ which is end-to-end encryption for the vast majority of iCloud data types, meaning even Apple can’t access your data. Would love to see a video on this!

Apple should have access to the data if it is stored in Apple owned servers. This is legal issue in USA. When court orders Apple for any data related to an investigation they have to provide that data to law enforcement, if it is encrypted then Apple should have an option to decrypt it so they should have the key to decrypt.

Curious what you think about pcloud? I've been searching for a cloud solution that is the 'safest'.

I get it, but really, does the average person care if someone accesses their calendar of contacts? It's kind of a stretch to think someone would go through the trouble to access that info unless you're into some really sketchy stuff.

Update with launch of Advanced Data Protection in iOS 16.2. The following are now end-to-end encrypted (whereas before they were "in-transit and on server"): iCloud Backup, iCloud Drive, Photos, Notes, Reminders, Safari bookmarks, Siri Shortcuts, Voice Memos, Wallet passes, Freeform iCloud Mail, Contacts, and Calendars are still not e2ee.

How does your view change with Advanced Data Protection

Hi, this video is only 8 months old but would you rate this differently today?Now iCloud indeed has e2e encryption? They still don’t say emails, contacts, calendars are e2e, but isn’t that a „more honest“ description as you criticized Proton for that wording in other videos?

Compared to the time this video was posted, Apple now has 256-bit AES encryption (he mentions that level is military grade at 3:32) According to Apple website: “On A14, A15, and M1 family devices, the encryption uses AES-256 in XTS mode, where the 256-bit per-file-key goes through a Key Derivation Function (NIST Special Publication 800-108) to derive a 256-bit tweak and a 256-bit cipher key. “

Also, Apple no longer uses HSM under their Advanced Data Protection. Which means that what he said about Apple still being able to access your data is no longer true. According to Apple website: “Conceptually, Advanced Data Protection is simple: All CloudKit Service keys that were generated on device and later uploaded to the available-after-authentication iCloud Hardware Security Modules (HSMs) in Apple data centers are deleted from those HSMs and instead kept entirely within the account’s iCloud Keychain protection domain. They are handled like the existing end-to-end encrypted service keys, which means Apple can no longer read or access these keys.”

Before people go crazy here is the fact: If your data is stored in USA then they should be able to decrypt the data and hand it over to law enforcement when asked by court. Not doing so is breaking the law. If you want to hide the data from government I don’t think there are any options available. Even if you have your own server you have to give it to law enforcement if court approves the request.

Show us how to setup our own iCloud servers. That we can sync e-mail, docs, notes, etc...

Apple just increased the iCloud price by 25% without telling anyone! Seriously pissed off I expect these videos to get very popular..

Graphene OS!!.. Its amazing!

Why use iCloud to sync calendar and contact data? Both usually are provided by your email provider (Gmail, OFFICE, etc.) so all devices sync with the source provider for the data. Syncing it laterally via iCloud doesn't make a lot of sense and seems redundant.

last update got "Advanced Data Protection for iCloud". then they say its not their fault: for contacts, calendar and mail... iCloud Mail: iCloud Mail does not use end-to-end encryption because of the need to interoperate with the global email system. All native Apple email clients support optional S/MIME for message encryption. Contacts and Calendars: Contacts and calendars are built on industry standards (CalDAV and CardDAV) that do not provide built-in support for end-to-end encryption.

It’s on by default to save a backup on Icloud and it’s so they later can sell more storage for it, i don’t want it, i don’t care about it. But here i sit with a red exclamation mark bubble i can’t seem to get rid of screaming; alert alert! Pay up…

Nothing about this makes sense. Even when end-to-end encrypted, the email protocol still has a visible email address. Every server your mail passes through will record and collect the email addresses of you and your correspondents. Concerning "Calendar" and other iClou data: If your data is subpoenaed by law enforcement or the government, you have bigger problems on your hands than "what's on my calendar or in your emails." Do you trust your operating system and your computer hardware? Your device's OS and hardware can "fetch" and record ALL information before it gets encrypted. The only way to make sure that your data is safe is for you to design and manufacture your own hardware at home and write, from scratch, your own operating system and encryption protocols.

Right, in order to feel private and safe at home, we should convert our homes into underground nuclear bunkers. There is no other safe way of course, you could never have privacy without this. Or you know, maybe lock your windows and doors, close the blinds, and stop putting cameras in your bathroom from a company that has access to them “for your safety”. Yeah, a rock can defeat the window, but that doesn’t mean it’s all for nothing and you should just go ahead and stream everything to a company. Maybe don’t voluntarily provide all of your important information to a company in the first place, a revolutionary and unthinkable idea.

I’m not aware of the laws but I’m pretty sure you’re smart enough to do it! Think big! What you want is what a lot of people want and will pay for it!!! If I got rid of my redundancy for my data storage, I could afford $186 a year and I have less than 1 gig of data.

@@sunknudsen Well in the case of this specific video, basically half of it is a plug for your membership, which I can hardly fault you for, of course, but isn't very substantive. And the first half doesn't have much more depth than the title -- apple technically has access to your data. And then of course telling us how you're GOING to be telling us about alternatives. So in this case the whole video is kinda fluffy. Looking forward to the next vids, though. Aside from this specific video though, my general feedback is probably more just about your overall presentation style. It seems clear that you're perhaps trying to do the whole thing in one take with minimal editing. That's fine but definitely feels like it can be tightened up a bit. Misspeaking or various "live flubs" would probably be best edited out?

The police and border control officers will force you to fill in every password they encounter when searching the devices (unless you decide to deny them access and go to jail right-away). And believe me you have things you really want to hide - your wife's nude pic on your phone behind a password is enough for a prison sentence in Uzbekistan. Steganography is the only way.
