salted hash browns posted:In order to sell iPhones in China, Apple was required to make two concessions: 1) provide a censored version of the app store (no VPN apps) and 2) provide encryption keys to icloud backups in China to a state owned company. It got no press coverage in the US because everyone here waxes poetic about how good Apple is for privacy. i love how facebook has been trying to fix their “friendly fraud” system driving fiscal engagement of 5 year old “whales” (quotes for facebook official lingo on subject matter) in monetised free to play games calling out apple for china poo poo is a valid thing to do. saying that apple is bad or morally bankrupt , *unlike* google or facebook - that’s just outing yourself as naive or poorly informed fool

i have professional experience with that kind of information in eu, and the real extent of information banks provide, even comparing different banks within a single member state, differs from each other and also from what it says in the post, very often.

a lot of bigger banks, that have some clout, basically are like “yeah, cool, but you see, this central bank ordnance 69-420 based on the degree of Minister Foo Bar from 2017-15-16 stipulates is that the data requests are subject to the national law on third party permittance upon monetary whereabouts of permanent residents...” and so on and so on with pages of legal drivel, and most fintechs just throw their hands up and mark “bank xyz of republic baz is a gaggle of assholes” in their docs, as none of them have enough time, money, and lunacy to get into a legal fight with a foreign bank on a foreign soil

other cool strat, especially favoured by multinational banks, is “yeah we’ll pass this to our integration team for API access, but meanwhile we can offer you this data via our secure ftp server” rigmarole that pits you against a gigantic pile of autogenerated RTFs or some other ancient garbage format that has you abandon the affair out of sheer cost/benefit analysis
