Good for Applie - Enhance Encryption on iPhones

[Guest032516]

The Apple iOS 8 will include encryption that prevents even Apple from accessing what is on a person's e-Phone - even with a valid police warrant:

Of course, it doesn't protect data that is NOT in the iPhone. Data that is stored in a cloud service or elsewhere on the Internet can still be accessed.

But, so long as you don't sync the phone with a remote server, you have enhanced protection.

Will this feature be an add on that users have to pay for ?

BTW, is E Phone something different from the I phone ?

Even people in the country illegally building houses for rich assholes?
Seems like Big Data could find a group of them, track them down, deport them, and force the asshole contractor to hire taxpaying Americans who are currently receiving unemployment benefits.

Dump the costs of education and healthcare of illegals on society while pocketing the profits.

Privatize the profits while socializing the costs.

After the middle class is destroyed, who is going to buy those houses?

My son talked me into getting an android phone. I want my iPhone back! At least with the iPhone I can have some control over what's accessible.
