@gtwilson Chrome easter egg to bypass bad cert warning: Type in "abadidea". Boom! You're through.

@JeremyCherfas Sounds like maybe the photos are being saved encrypted. There's a "unlock while phone unlocked" option and a "unlock once the phone has ever been unlocked after boot" option at the system file API level. See the fileProtection… options here [developer.apple.com].
The iOS security guide PDF [apple.com] clarifies the default:
Protected Until First User Authentication (NSFileProtectionCompleteUntilFirstUserAuthentication):
>
> This class behaves in the same way as Complete Protection, except that the decrypted class key is not removed from memory when the device is locked. The protection in this class has similar properties to desktop full-volume encryption, and protects data from attacks that involve a reboot. This is the default class for all third-party app data not otherwise assigned to a Data Protection class.
@matigo Are channels coming soon, then? Though I guess private posts can cover much of that.
@matigo Most of the billions came from hardware, I think, so maybe it's a wonder the software is as good as it is?
I'm not sure if that's glass half full thinking or half-drunk glass of draino pause for breath thinking.
@matigo I'm hoping getting more clients draws more folks here. :) Seem to be a lot of them underway just now.
@kdfrawg Well, in this case, I'm hoping I get a human who can click "Approve" on my dev account so I can move on to the TestFlight phase. ;)
@kdfrawg Many internal systems grow organically rather than by design. And then your company doubles and doubles and then thoughtless choices and stopgaps become cemented into How We Do Things.
But then you can spend money to get out of that situation, so the sympathy only lasts so long.
Apple demanded I show them my ID because:
The billing information you used on the Apple Online Store to purchase an Apple Developer Program membership does not match the billing information you provided during enrollment.
AFAICT it should be identical. But their mess of systems backing stuff has a chopsuey of my name as my actual name (Apple ID management), my first name and my wife's last name (Apple Developer Program), and apparently, straight up my wife's name (when they emailed me to confirm document upload). The shift in naming between "Jeremy we need…" to "thanks Katelyn for uploading…" was hilarious and worrisome at the same time.
All because I once used my wife's debit card for some iTunes Store purchases in 2007? 2008? Yeesh.
