It's hardware decryption. The key only ever exist within the SOC. Throwing away the decryption key means overwriting it with a new one. There is no possibility of recovery.

"Zeroing the storage space" probably does not overwrite anything on flash storage. Flash is very resistant to writing anything to a block unless it has to, as there are limited numbers of writes before the the block becomes unusable. Writing random data will, but at a cost of significant time. And it's still less secure than deleting the key of an encrypted drive.

Here's one. Fuck off you pretentious turd with a persecution complex.

You're a great advert for the IQ level of Android users.

'Tis but a scratch!
It's just a flesh wound!

Your personal phone preferences are irrelevant. This is a discussion of a specific feature of iOS and a weakness of Android.

Thoughts are irrelevant. Only actions impinge on others. And in civilised countries racist actions are already banned.

Not in the same way. Black racism consists of the assumption that they are criminal, violent and or stupid. Theses are not the assumptions about Asians or Jews. Which means they don't suffer the same disadvantages in the employment market that blacks do.

There are complex cultural differences too, but their existence doesn't mean that the racism element isn't significant and probably prominent.

No, it's a fact.

Drivel.

Do you know what a straw-man is?

Indeed you do get the occasional progressive fruit-cake too. But the right have a real talent for it.

Admit? No part of the argument is the existence of species. There's no "admission" here. it was never in contention. But a species is no longer the best level to consider evolution at.

There's sound, and there's music. Your contention is that evolution is like music, not sound. That's wrong, because music is about a subjective appreciation of art. And evolution, like sound, is a purely objective physical process. Music only exists at a macroscopic level. Evolution exists at the gene level.

That you observe the outcomes of gene selection at the species level rather then the gene level is a function of what your senses are capable of perceiving not what is actually happening. You also may notice that iron goes rusty, and to you that means it turns from grey to reddish brown. But what's really happening is happening at the molecular level.

Correct. But the way those high level features continue is through selection of those genes individually. There is no other level that selection works at. If a gene finds itself in an lifeform that has an advantage in part because the action of that gene in combination with other genes, then it will be more likely to successfully reproduce. Period.

Simply because they are not. They are a technology company that values design and can thus sell at premium prices. Which is very much not fashion.

I don't think you understand the world. The consumer truck is relatively rare in most developed countries. Even in rural parts. It might be YOUR priority, and it might even be something Tesla do when it's possible to proactively do one that is pure EV. But they don't need to compromise their business to deliver a compromise vehicle to a relatively small market.

With iOS, you can set it up so it can do remote secure wipe. So even if it's stolen, or you only remember you didn't wipe the data after you sold it, you can still be sure it's wiped the next time it connects to the network.

Indeed, you do have all the data on iCloud still safe. It's not on the phone though, and neither is any username or password, so it's irrelevant to selling the phone.

Reading between the lines, the data was recovered with recovery tools, because standard delete on a flash drive just marks a block as reusable, it doesn't actually overwrite the data.

Apple have issued guidance to law enforcement and security service on what they can and can't retrieve from an iPhone if given a court order. For a wiped phone it is nothing. There is no backdoor.
