Apple privacy: iOS 15 and the news to better protect

The next update of iOS 15, Apple’s operating system for iPhones coming this fall, includes a number of privacy-oriented improvements.

These include new controls on location information that are usually saved when a photo is taken.

With iOS 15 it will be easier to disable this setting which, if on the one hand it can be useful to remember the place imprinted in an image, on the other it still represents a further piece in the wide ecosystem of the so-called Big Data that everyone carries around. The news of iOS 15 on the issue of “Digital Legacy”

And we come to the latest news from Apple on the subject of the so called “Digital Legacy”. The pivotal mechanism focuses on this digital heritage is a program that - once the new iOS 15 update is released - will allow the user to enable some email accounts to recover data hosted on iCloud. Access will obviously not be immediate, being rather subject to the death of the person holding the iCloud profile. And for the sake of greater transparency, those who have obtained the authorization will still have to exhibit legal proof of the user’s death, namely a death certificate.
