What the fucking hell? How evil and monstrous can apple be now that MOST of their phone hardware income came from china last year?

WHY did apple go totally evil?

Is it only if chat running in background (video proves its on HOME SCREEN), and battery above 80% ?

If anyone believes apple had no harmful intentions they are fools.

PS: Someone I know likes to show me stuff on their phone from time to time. It has the odd habit of locking up for no reason shortly after I get it. This explains why most likely. No notification of why has ever been displayed.

Also I’m almost 100% certain SnapChat is involved in tons of this fuckery (obviously)

I have a theory that Snapchat face filters which pre and post pandemic focused VERY HEAVILY ON SURGICAL MASKS

Like stylish, surgical masks with cute designs and such

Are made to train their facial AI to recognize partial and covered faces.

For example you look into the camera on SnapChat, it graphs out your face, now it applies a digital mask face filter, and then with that digital mask blocking out part of your face, it then runs the AI again to train the AI to recognize that image of the coveted face mask face.

Anyone understand what I’m saying?

What's really outrageous holy shit is that apple customers are so fucking stupid they don't see why that's a dangerous thing

For the intellectually inept and those shills who conveniently "cant" understand why its bad:

We have governments all over saying they want to predict action, and red flag if not police people based on emotional state and what their face looks like. Instantly leading to more violations of privacy and rights.

There is linking your face to your device and thus privately expressed opinion and viewing habits. Anyone who knows anything of what totalitarian (possibly all) governments do should be concerned. Having the wrong opinions can get you killed or any number of other things as any real journalist knows. Even awareness of cancel culture or the violation of your inalienable human right of privacy should be enough to cause opposition.

There is also blending this kind of thing in with Social Credit Score. That being red flagging a person and then deciding how much difficulty and suppression they and the ones around them are going to have in this life.

All this is just scratching the iceberg. No one could tolerate a stalker taking pictures of their child every day. Regardless of reason or the nature of the picture. Automate a machine to quietly do it and somehow people forget the outrageous severity of what is being done.

It's more than this. It was proven a few years back that facial recognition can be beaten with clever makeup, certain facewear, etc.

Note in Apple's white paper that they are trying to have their neural engine learn and link makeup patterns to the face.

Why say its more than this? I made a point to say "All this is just scratching the iceberg."

It's so sad that it has to be spelled out for people. Good job.

I predict all Android phones will be doing the same to aid china gov out.

Something evil seems to be behind it all. (((Someone))) wants to enforce socialism and crush disent?

Its so evil and sinister to eat up batteries doing emotion and face structure tracking of all users of a phone, even kids borrowing mommy's phone.

Android users cant be smug soon.

They do - the damage control is because this started a panic. Most Apple fanboys are convinced that Apple doesn't do this ('they take your security seriously!'), not that it isn't dangerous.

I used to cover the camera on my mobile, but it prevents it from detecting light levels and it became impossible to see it outside in the sun.

Man what was it....

I remember going through settings recently while trying to manage how often your phone locks, wanting to change from 30 seconds to a minute, and I believe I saw a bunch of really confusingly worded settings that had to do with this.

Dig through the settings it was something about tracking eye movement and facial expressions. It was very wish washy terms meant to confuse.

It’s fun to put on a vr headset and look at the iPhone through the infrared camera. The iPhone goes apeshit and can’t figure out what the fuck is going on. Hahahahaha.

BREAKING NEWS: WATER WET?!!!???! SKY IS BLUE!!!!! MORE AT 11!

Mass surveillance through phone cameras has been talked about in mainstream conversation since 2002. If you don't assume you're being spied on at this point you are willfully ignorant or literally a child who hasn't been taught yet.

Don't use a mobile identification device. Life worked before they existed. EDIT: you don't need to be connected to the hivemind 24/7

Apple gets caught secretly doing some questionable shit at least once a year. Why do consumers still buy their shit?

Every other device is doing the same shit. What options does anyone have?

Becoming Amish. Thats about it. Easier said than done. It doesnt take care of the problems either. It simply ignores them to your personal detriment while delaying the time until technological issues inevitably encroaches upon you or your descendants lives again.

Other than that teck can be reworked from the ground up and open sourced. Placing manufacturing and design in the hands of everyone. Another easier said than done thing.

That however will certainly collapse society and open up untold paths to deviancy and wronging others thus harming many innocents.

Im not sure what can be done about it all. Good options are desperately needed but the trash and the foolish plaguing humanity will adapt and continue to do so regardless of the options presented. Its a thing humanity will need to face soon. The human race is simply incapable of continuing on as it has been for another thousand years. Perhaps not even for a few more decades.

Purism or pinephone, and they are hard as fuck to get right now.

It's like everyone has forgotten that Linux is developed to protect people from various state threats, which is also why they have spent so much energy trying to penetrate the linux ecosystem.

Android is of course Linux. With some startup changes.

"There are good reasons why a growing number of people are willing to make concessions and use Linux smartphones instead of the more convenient and better spec’d devices running Apple’s and Google’s operating systems. Let me start with the obvious: Linux smartphones offer unparalleled security and prevent user-data from being harvested by large corporations. Aside from the inherent privacy afforded by running open source software, users can also alter and harden their installations to a point that is simply not possible on an Android or iOS device. But you knew this already."

I always looked bored, so good luck with that AI. This sounds like the plot of Ex Machina; the villain taught the AI to mimic human emotion by having all the cell phones secretly recording the users faces.

I think it all has to do with trans humanism at some point these emojis and such will be wired into the brain and you can control a digital avatar.

itechpost is fucking chink spam, fuck them

He is renowned for his wide range of valuable technique news.

Apple admits nothing you claim.

What happens when FaceID is turned off?

I wonder if the Chinese can access this information. My prediction is I that phone data protected in this manner will soon be much more difficult to retrieve by govs. And that is why the propaganda knives are out.

You’re sensationalist. Crawl back to your hole.

Often since 2017, but now they also use it to study pupils and track faces of all users to "dim the screen if you are not staring at phone"... hah! liars!

2017 : Animoji : Animoji uses the IR system on the iPhone X TrueDepth camera system to periodically update a depth map but it uses the RGB camera constantly to track and match facial movement and expressions.

https://www.imore.com/yes-animoji-uses-truedepth-camera-system-iphone-x

but now the fucking evil shit from 2017 has morphed into 100% 24/7 spying on your face , even on the HOME SCREEN.
