| Chinese iCloud user data is now handled by a state-owned telco If you're an Apple customer living in China who didn't already opt out of having your iCloud data stored locally, here's a good reason to do so now. That information, the data belonging to China-based iCloud users which includes emails and text messages, is now being stored by a division of China Telecom, the state-owned telco. The operator's Tianyi cloud storage business unit has taken the reins for iCloud China, according to a WeChat post from China Telecom. Apple separately confirmed the change to TechCrunch. Privacy is very important to us at Apple. Unless you're Chinese - then you're **** out of luck. http://osnews.com/story/30594/Chines...te-owned_telco |
