Meanwhile apple has added iMessage apps[1], that you can add to your iMessage and there recently were a few iMessage exploits including a zero-click one[2]. [1] https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT206906 [2] https://9to5mac.com/2021/07/19/zero-click-imessage-exploit/
I think you have replied to the wrong person, otherwise I fail to see how either of these citations are in any way relevant.

I think you need to add a translation of the tweet. Because it sounds as if he didn't obey Apple's warning. Yet I think he approves of Apple's s notification. It is the government who he wasn't obeying? So the government installed the spyware?
It is like polish Watergate: the prosecutor has been criticizing minister Ziobro and already lost her job (not only her, this problem is now on EU table and European trials say polish gov is breaking the law doing this) and now she learned minister Ziobro was spying her (and probably is still doing this)

Respond by using 2fa if you weren't already, not signing into the account from untrusted devices, checking OAuth grants for apps you don't recognize, not using same pw elsewhere
Yeah, we were doing that, so the response was to just shrug. Without a lot more context it's hard to know what your reaction should be to something like that.
So something like PRISM that targets everybody won't trigger a warning?
I doubt it. Keep in mind this will only work for non-court-gag-ordered instances. If the US subpoenas Apple about an individual they won't be allowed to notify them. I have no idea how this applies to other countries. I think this is more like: "We noticed unusual API usage and we don't have a gag order so whatever it is, it's not likely to be good"
Will it notify users about cybersecurity threats from the US authorities or will it obey the gag order?

NSA surveillance is illegal. Will we be notified?
Which surveillance? By what ruling? The phone metadata collection was ruled illegal, but that does not affect Apple.
It utterly sucks having the sole oversight court having IC's back at our expense.
So Apple is saying they can’t solve their security problems?
Like it or not, if they go against three-letter-agencies in the US, high ranked apple employees will spend years in jail based on the rulings of secret courts where all of your rights are irrelevant. The moment the cia says the word "terrorism", all your rights are gone regardless of how wrong the investigators might be. They can literally declare you guilty without you even knowing you were were accused of anything because according to them, national security is more important than the constitution.
they are on the same level as the ccp
