macOS 27 Golden Gate Kills Time Capsule Support

, ,

macOS 27 Golden Gate removes AFP support, ending Time Machine compatibility with all Time Capsule models that rely on AFP and SMBv1 protocols, which do not meet the new SMBv2/SMBv3 and TLS 1.2 network security requirements. A community project called TimeCapsuleSMB offers a workaround by installing modern Samba software on supported Time Capsule hardware, though this requires manual activation on older models and starts a new backup chain. Intel Mac users can continue using Time Capsule by staying on macOS 26, but Apple silicon Macs upgrading to macOS 27 will need alternative backup solutions.

Apple Is About to Make Hide My Email Useless

, , , ,

Apple has announced that Sign in with Apple and iCloud+ Hide My Email aliases will now use the @private.icloud.com domain, making it easier for services to block these aliases without affecting regular iCloud mailboxes. This change could reduce the effectiveness of Hide My Email for privacy, as many services may start rejecting these new aliases similarly to temporary email addresses.

Apple Adds Keylogger to iOS App Store for Targeted Advertising: Tied to Your Account and Unencrypted

Apple has introduced extensive analytics in the iOS App Store that record every user tap and keystroke to enable personalized recommendations and targeted advertising. This data, reportedly stored unencrypted and tied to user accounts, is sent to Apple, raising privacy concerns given Apple's previously strong stance on user privacy. However, some analysis suggests the data transmission may be encrypted via SSL, leaving details of the practice and its scope somewhat unclear.
