Yup. it's exactly this. After first unlock, data is decrypted and loaded into memory. You shouldn't be able to extract it though, without unlocking the device.

I have a feeling that this post is somewhat personal? Maybe your social circle, either online or offline is doing this?
It's also not very new. At my previous job, many people had side gigs. And people have done this for a very long time. In the Netherlands we even have a word for it, 'beunhaas', which is a person that does a job they have no formal education for. Like the school teacher who lays flooring on the weekend.
These days, however, there are many things that probably used to be considered hobbies, that can now earn you a living wage. You don't have to be a PGA pro anymore to earn money playing golf, you can just make video's and post them on the internet.
And then there's all the stories about hobby projects that turned into businesses that are all over the internet. So in stead of laying flooring or fixing roofs on the weekend to earn some extra cash, people try to do so with their hobbies.
Personally, I'd love to earn some money with 3D printing or flying drones. It just seems that the market is saturated with everyone wanting to do so.
I recently started a new job and interviewed with multiple companies in the process. At the end, I was still interviewing with two companies. One of them put me in a room with two devs who went slightly hard ball on me and seemed to want to try and catch me on not being good enough. The other put me in a room with a member of leadership who wanted to discuss a role he thought would be a good fit for my profile and then have a casual chat about the organization and the challenges.
Both wanted to give me an offer. Guess where I ended up working.
I've seen forms where they want you to enter your work history including descriptions of all your roles... And then they also ask you to upload your resume.
There's so many alternatives, I'm always surprised that a Whatsapp outage seems to mean the end of the world to many people.
Edit: I feel like every response I'm getting is: 'but texting is expensive, especially with foreign contacts'. Sure, but do you really need to send 100 texts in the odd hour that Whatsapp is offline sometimes, or can they wait?
Parent wrote 'This is a big issue in Europe', which is what I'm responding to. I live in Europe, I have foreign contacts. This should not be a big issue, because for pretty much everything that can't wait, texting or calling will be worth it. If it isn't worth spending some money to get in touch with someone, it can probably wait. This may be an actual issue for a very, very small number of people. But the majority is just exaggerating because they feel disconnected without being able to send Gifs to their friends for an hour.
Or the government can just stop giving them subsidies and they'll just seize existing. I think buying them out is a neater solution.
This video is full of blatant misinformation and misrepresentation. Our current discussion is not about climate change, it's about acidification and that's it. No matter how true your comments may be, it has nothing to do with the situation in the Netherlands and it continues the spread of this misinformation. Please stop, it's harmful.
These people are going from 0-1 time a year to 2-3 times a year, because they're starting to earn more and can therefore take more trips. They are ignorant to the fact that's more wasteful than eating meat. This is typical personal green-washing, which is the part that annoys me.
I understand that perfect is the enemy of good and I'm not implying that everyone should be perfect.
Sure, that might be true, but it is definitely blatant misinformation that Dutch farmers are being blamed for climate change. It is not part of the discussion that's currently ongoing in The Netherlands and that is purposefully being misrepresented in (mostly American) right-wing media. This needs to be clear, because the violent protests by framers in The Netherlands are being abused by foreign interest groups who frame them as protests against those farmers being blamed for climate change.
This is a real issue, because this is starting to become an actual discussion point for those who are supporting the farmers. They are, for example, asking why farmers are now targeted and airports are not, while farmers cause 88x more nitrogen emissions than flights in the Netherlands. Also, those emissions are less focused on the problem areas.
Misinformation is incredibly harmful in this discussion and therefore it's incredibly important to keep the facts straight. Otherwise all discussions and arguments will mix and there will never actually be anything done.
Well, I also see a lot of people who do the tiny thing but not the big thing. Plenty of people around me are reducing their meat intake (and are vocal about it), because climate change, but still fly on airplanes, some multiple times a year. It's so incredibly frustrating that many people are just green washing their lives, but are oblivious to the fact they're not really doing much at all.
I do have massive respect for the people I do know that have quit eating meat and are now doing all their travels by train.
Nobody is doing that, this is blatant misinformation that is being spread by interest groups that profit off Dutch farmers.
Most of the discussion around farmers over here has to do with nitrogen. As the OP mentioned, it is causing acidification of nature areas, which is negatively impacting all sorts of wildlife. It's a mostly local problem, often caused by intensive farming and is mostly unrelated to climate change.
The short answer... It depends.
People always assume a lot of things when they imply that video evidence makes something an easy case to solve. Identifying people in videos isn't as easy as it seems, for example. It's also not safe to assume that the person posting a video is also the person who filmed it, nor that the location data is correct. So who's the suspect?
Also, where does TikTok send the video? Do they send it to Police in a city where a video is geo tagged, or where it was uploaded, or where the user account was created?
This type of stuff seems trivial when reading an article like this, but it isn't in real life. It's all stuff that may take weeks to figure out and all that time can't be spent on other cases. So yes, sometimes (maybe even often) such reports don't lead to cases. And even if they did, there's no guarantee it would lead to anything.
I hate that this type of statement always pops up as soon as I see any mention of LE. While it might be true for some parts of the US (and probably other countries), it isn't true for the majority of people involved in this field. It's just incredibly hard (thankfully) to convict someone of a crime. It requires a lot of evidence and paperwork. Meanwhile there's a pretty limited amount of resources to work on this kind of thing.
It would be impossible for 'authorities' to investigate 20 million images they receive from Facebook. But implying that authorities don't investigate anything, and don't even want to, is just flat out wrong. For example, here's a story about an awful child predator that was caught in The Netherlands, because American authorities started an investigation into reported images: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amsterdam_sex_crimes_case
This case is also an example of what authorities tend to focus on, which is producers. A lot of effort is spent trying to prevent producers/abusers from causing more harm. All of this effort can't be invested in investigating brokers/spreaders of 'known' CSAM. Time is limited for everyone and it is too for authorities.
And yes, a probable majority of fraud cases don't get picked up, even if they seem obvious and easy to solve. This is because the man hours for actually getting someone convicted is huge and authorities usually focus on cases involving violence. I personally had to cut short fraud investigations, because preventing a wife from getting murdered by her husband or stopping an illegal arms shipment took preference. And I can't say I feel guilty about that.
1. Am I allowed to write maintainable code, or just have to push features?
2. Will the organization invest in me, coach me and allow me to grow into roles with more purpose and hopefully financial reward?
If companies treat me like a piece of meat, in stead of a human who's trying to build a career, I get out. And often it takes a while for the truth to appear. I always hope to find a place where I feel good enough to work for 5 or 10 years, but up to now no employer has treated me well enough to stick around that long.
Good point, I hadn't thought about it this way. Will people prefer fake living in the Bahamas over watching other people really living in the Bahamas? It's an interesting question.
It'll also require actual interaction without displaying your physical appearance, which Instagram, TikTok and Snap seem to have killed.
I do like the idea of digital gatherings though. Being able to chill and interact with a distant family member like they're right next to you is pretty cool.
How is that creating a narrative? People with low education are also often people who deal with government programs a lot. Through medicare, social security, VA, police, public schooling, public housing and I can keep on going, these people are often dependent on government. And that combined with lower mental capacity really doesn't help.
> Good governments generally understand this, and the most effective health policy during the pandemic was to give the mic to the scientific community.
That's what they did in my country... And in my country, the covid anti-vaxxers are very relatable to the ones in the US. Hell, they get most their information from Q-anon.
And isn't Kanye also still popular by those metrics?
The major apps all have the ability to market weight loss products when you gain weight, for example, which is the thing I personally resent the most.
Transparency on the use of data is important to make decisions on this type of stuff. If a weather app requests access to my barometer to improve predictions, independent of my personal data, I would fully comply with that.
