iPhone owners say the latest iOS update is resurfacing deleted nudes
I appreciate this thread’s nuanced discussion of how file deletion works from a technical standpoint depending on storage medium. But as a user, when I delete something, it should go away forever. I don’t care how.
It’s to prevent you from accidentally deleting a photo you would never want to delete. If you want to make sure it’s deleted, you just go into the Photos app and delete it from the Recently Deleted folder. I prefer this approach, as I have accidentally deleted a photo that I did not mean to, and luckily it was still there. Use cases are different though, so.
Just the nudes. Nothing else.
Not true, it specifically states in the article that, for example, one user had over 300 photos reappear, “some of which were revealing”. This is obviously not great but it isn’t likely as scandalous as it’s being made out to be.
The joke --------->
You ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It was kinda wrote like a statement. People who didn’t read the article will read it as such, misinforming people
Have you always been a pedant or is this a recent development?
There’s so much misinformation online, sure it could have been a joke but it’s so easy to just be lazy, read the comment straight and move on acting like there’s some kind of operation going on at Apple stealing your nudes. I don’t really care if it’s a joke or not, and you’re not even the OP so who are you to say it’s for a fact a joke?
That was the case for me, until I decided to read the article
What article, it’s just a link. If I can’t read it here it ain’t there.
