Saw an article that said after installing an iOS update, nude photos thought deleted years ago are reappearing in photo album. You might think no big deal, but this was reportedly happening on devices thought to be factory reset before selling or returning them, so other people now have your nudes. Seems like the act of deleting didn't overwrite the memory space. I don't think I took naughty pics or vids on my iPod that I had to unexpectedly hand over for a repair replacement since the Apple Store didn't give me any indication that's what I had to do so on the spot had to decide to reset the iPod before surrendering it. I should have taken some super long hi res video with it first just in case to use up memory to overwrite stuff.

LOL @ anyone thinking they can "delete" anything from the internet, without a team of the very best blood thirsty genius hackers and programmers to scour every inch of the web to do it, and even then, they ain't gonna get it all.
It's like trying to get rid of nuclear waste. Just because you dump it in the ocean, doesn't mean it's gone.

Apple users are typically fornicaters, so this tracks.

News flash: anything stored in the cloud is insecure by default. Imagine that your neighbour had a computer server at home, and they told you "Hey, why don't you store all your personal data on my server, which I own and can access any time I want?" You'd tell them to fuck off. Yet a Big Tech company, a giant psychopathic machine that exists for nothing but profit and control, offers people the same "convenience" and suddenly they don't mind at all. They didn't mind it either when Apple sold them some BS about scanning photos for child abuse, when they're really scanning it for surveillance and data scraping. Y'all dumb.

You mean if I get a second hand iPhone I don't have to take nude photos to put on it because someone else already did it for me???

Wait, so the phone hardrive itself partitions itself so pics become part of the firmware? That's 100% purposeful

The article I saw was about deleted nude pics on the phone itself reappearing in photo album, not about cloud. I suppose employees working in cloud centers get to save tons of quality nudes to their heart's content.
There should be a yellow pages category listing for those people.

Why are you taking nudes?
