It’s not giving good results because this is bullshit.

Lol no apple pays google to disappear this info and make it very hard to find. It also happened like 4-5 years ago, and was not covered by any major news org, so it would be hard to find anyway.
It was for macos not IOS and everyone found out about this feature when apple server went down and nobody could start apps for a bit.

Im having a hard time finding any info about it either, but I’ll keep looking.

EDIT: I believe the feature was called “gatekeeper”
EDIT2: it think this is it: reddit.com/…/apple_is_tracking_hashes_of_all_exec…reddit.com/…/psa_if_your_mac_suddenly_just_got_ve…
EDIT3: found it!! heres louis rossman explaining everything: www.youtube.com/watch?v=aS2lJNQn3NA

the only reason apple cares about security is so theyre the exclusive vendor of your information.
they both play ball with everyone, apple just charges more

EDIT: IOS had a “feature” where it would phone home to ask if every application was allowed to launch, but it didn’t use any security like TLS. this is an unbelievable security hole that allows everyone on the wifi to see what youre doing and network admins to prevent you from running any program. this show how little they care about your privacy, and how much they care about control
