    Anyone handling (incredibly insecure! This cannot be understated!) push notifications can be secretly compelled by force of law to hand them over. That’s not unique to Apple or ios.

    To bring that all the way back to what I said, that the claim “ios hardening is a myth” is not true: you can turn off push notifications in ios. Because of the nature of the technology there are other controls around it that are not part of the receiving devices operating system and need to be handled separately.

    If you haven’t already, disable push notifications.

    I think there’s a fundamental lack of understanding amongst people in general about the purpose of our networks. The Internet, like cable television and broadcast tv and radio before it, is a propaganda and surveillance technology overlaid on military command and control.
