A 17-year-old from Nebraska and her mother are facing criminal charges including performing an illegal abortion and concealing a dead body after police obtained the pair’s private chat history from Facebook, court documents published by Motherboard show.
they actually do encrypted backups nowadays.
By default or is it opt-in? Glad to hear that they have taken steps to remediate the biggest weakness of their service.
I’m not entirely sure. I think I had to opt in when it came out, but I don’t know if they’ve ever changed it.
IIRC it asks if you want to enable backup, and when turning on backup it’s an option to encrypt it with a key or password. So by default there’s no backup at all.
