Wow! Not really sure how to feel about this one. The house I grew up in is now up for sale. If those walls could talk, the stories they would tell. Maybe I’m glad they can’t talk. Lol… I know they’d have some tales to tell about me. Happy for mom and dad. They get to move up to Oregon… Be near family and such. This is kind of a bittersweet thing. Sharing it here though in case anyone is looking for a house in Arizona. https://www.weichert.com/128515338/?fbclid=IwQ0xDSwLNa4ZleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHr5mLclbmD7rGWTwu1QVK1ulIynRhS7Dp94lJDIHM_HlJbZp9JmVCFIxvSHW_aem_75JGXJ6oC-s1nQR4Kj4CSw

Keep having to bang this drum, over and over again.

If I want to keep my kids from accessing something on the Internet, I could either 1) petition the government to do my job for me, or 2) learn how the parental filters on the devices and network gear work and do it my own damn self.

Of course I’d choose 2 every time, because I’d rather lead my own house than make that decision for everyone else.

Wait, what? macOS Tahoe beta 2 automatically enabled FileVault and uploaded a recovery key to iCloud.

I did not have a choice in the matter.

This is fucking insane!

@lapcatsoftware much, much worse than insane. Apple has made it quite clear they are happy to do the bidding of fascists and authoritarian regimes.
Particularly while doing PR to claim that Apple is 'more secure' and the government would 'never' ask them to do so.

Basically, people are fucking stupid if they think Apple isn't eager to decrypt and volunteer all of your most private data to literal Nazis before they even ask.

@lapcatsoftware Defiantly need consent for these things although I get why they do this by default for regular users. however it’s saved in your password manager which any data is e2e. Wouldn’t you still need your device passcode on your iPhone to view the recovery key? I haven’t read the documentation for the new macOS yet

@zolotkey @lapcatsoftware They should definitely not force FileVault nor key escrow, but you should be able to reboot and login remotely using this trick: https://superuser.com/a/1024694

I have a setup where I have an OSX machine as a server. OS is OSX El Capitan. One of the services it needs to have is sshd. The problem I am trying to solve is that when ever I reboot, I need to

@lapcatsoftware Beta 1 did this too. I turned it off immediately.
@troz Ah, interesting! Did you upgrade install? I clean installed Tahoe and didn’t sign in to iCloud.
@lapcatsoftware I did an upgrade install of beta 1 which turned on FileVault. Updating the beta 2 did not turn it back on again, so it appears to be the first upgrade that does this.
@lapcatsoftware This is not the same as the current “Allow my iCloud to reset FileVault”, is it?
@lapcatsoftware Do you have Passwords syncing to icloud?
@lapcatsoftware wait til you find out about what macos does to your disabled wifi when you're asleep
@lapcatsoftware I installed a fresh Tahoe into a VM directly from Beta 2, and it didn't even enable FileVault by default. After turning it on (and not being signed into iCloud), it looks like this:
@maikm A fresh install won’t do it. I believe you have to be already signed into iCloud when upgrading.

@lapcatsoftware If you had no file vault and now you have it, your security has been improved, there's no way around it.

Before, anybody could access your computer, including the Apple and any government agencies. Now, Apple and those government agencies still can access your computer, so can you, but unaffiliated malicious attackers cannot.
