During the revolution, could Apple block or tamper with all iphones such that revolutionaries cannot communicate?

    Kinda, but i guess for me it puts silent update in the realm of possibility (updates can be installed without you noticing or consenting, only by blocking). ios administration is even more barebones.

    Plus 2 years ago there was some shenanigans about macos sidestepping system-wide vpn settings to talk to apple servers, which they also fixed to be fair.

    So for me its a questionmark whether its impossible

        I meant this https://www.macrumors.com/2021/01/14/macos-big-sur-11-2-beta-2-exclusion-list-gone/ , they’ve added an internal list of exceptions to vpn/firewalls, added their own apps to it, but then removed that list, fixing the issue.

        So it is fixed, but very sus why would they add this exception list in the first place

        ios vpn leaking without kill switch is just how it is 🤷
