iMessage and the Secret Service
The Secret Service has lately been in some hot water because they failed to backup the text message (and iMessage?) history of the devices issued to their staff during an MDM transition. I talked some with Jason Snell from Six Colors in a recent piece about what happened[…]
I wish there were a supported way to back up/export my entire message history from iCloud. Not having access to my own data is way worse than the potential privacy implications of my having an unencrypted copy of the data.
