    To add further to your section regarding hidden photos file you can even turn this off within the settings application and hide it altogether within the photo album but still when you're in your photos you can still send photos to the hidden folder just giving another layer of privacy, hope you found this usefulgreat video keep up the good work

    I had been under the impression that VPN's were no longer important. Since that is obviously false, is there a free and a paid VPN service that you recommend?

      I wouldn’t consider them terribly “important”, but they can be useful in certain cases. I recommend ProtonVPN, which also has a free plan.

      Yea, they don’t, which is why I don’t make a video about it. Mobile apps don’t have the ability to analyze or control data on other parts/apps on the phone.

    • @AllThingsSecured
      @AllThingsSecured  Місяць тому

      You’re encrypting the data with your own keys that they don’t have access to. That’s the big difference. It doesn’t matter who the owner of the company is in that case, but as for going out of business - that true of any internet company, I guess. Calculated risk.

    Is the sponsor link working for anyone else? The 80% off isn't showing.
    Also, if something happens to this company what are the guarantees on this data? I'm thinking of using this as an offsite backup for a NAS. If anyone has experience with this service, would love to hear your thoughts.

    A major failure is if you have older Mac devices not able to be updated to the latest OS. You have to remove these devices from your account to enable ADP.

      This is true. It seems to be one way in which Apple “encourages” users to continue upgrading their devices 🤷‍♂️

      No, it’s the Settings screen where 2 factor authentication and Advanced Dara Protection are located.

  • @mikeward1701
    @mikeward1701 28 днів тому

    The only people who need to use advanced data protection are people at risk of being individually targeted by other people, organisations, or governments/nation states. It’s overkill for the average person, and puts regular people at risk of losing access to their important files and precious memories, because if they lose that one recovery key, they lose everything!

    • @AllThingsSecured
      @AllThingsSecured  27 днів тому +2

      I respectfully disagree. We need to learn to be in control of our own data, and Apple gives us a fairly risk-limited way to do this. Adding a recovery contact and backup codes mean that it would be pretty difficult to get locked out.

      @butlrfares Місяць тому +1

      He’s presumably in the US, where most people are Apple users. Also, with so many different manufacturers changing settings on Androids, it’s difficult to make a video that is as simple as one for Apple, since different settings are likely in different locations, not universally defaulting to the same settings, etc.
      Also, he could just be an iPhone user that doesn’t know that much about Android 😂🤷‍♂️
