Hello!

Some vocal proponents and shills on the internet and in privacy community are trying to defend and heavily insinuate lies about Apple’s notarisation not being of any consequence, and claiming Linux does it, and is an ordinary acceptable thing.

There is also being thrown around a claim about Apple’s notarisation checks being a documented process. Documentation does NOT make a thing right or wrong, it just establishes the flowchart or algorithm of a process.

Major edit: bypassing firewalls/VPNs was totally intended for MacOS and not a bug or flaw: https://i.imgur.com/M1ZwlDC.png

CDNUUIDs sent with the OCSP server checks are sent in PLAINTEXT on the internet to Apple servers: https://i.imgur.com/Q2IhYqM.png

Apple apps apparently have ads served, needing to be blocked via LittleSnitch, since firewalls are automatically bypassed: https://twitter.com/_p9k_/status/1324415251308269568

Apple has apparently claimed to fix this spying and plaintext lack of security over the next year (screenshot): https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202491

That is all, folks! Take care and stay away from such garbage corporations.
