So in terms of tightening up my own security and advising family members…

Obviously the best thing to do would be to get a GrapheneOS device and a Linux laptop.

But switching away from iPhone and/or away from Mac is not something most people will (or even can) do. So what should people do to minimize the impact of this?

Off the top of my head:

  • Turn off as many “store in iCloud” toggles as you can
  • Use alternatives to Apple apps where available
  • Maybe change your appstore to a non-UK country (but IDK if that’s how they are flagging people)

But I’m no specialist. Would love to hear your guys thoughts.
