蘋果在“棱鏡”項(xiàng)目中提供了哪些數(shù)據(jù)
來(lái)源:美國(guó)國(guó)家安全局“棱鏡”計(jì)劃幻燈片
????近日,蘋果(Apple)被曝參與了“棱鏡”計(jì)劃,允許美國(guó)國(guó)家安全局(the National Security Agency)“直接”從其服務(wù)器上獲取數(shù)據(jù)。為了安撫用戶情緒,蘋果在本周一早間發(fā)布了一份官方聲明。要點(diǎn)如下: ????? 相關(guān)部門索要了大量信息:從2012年12月1日到2013年5月31日期間,蘋果收到了4,000到5,000次信息索取請(qǐng)求,涉及9,000到1,0000個(gè)賬號(hào)及設(shè)備。 ????? 這些請(qǐng)求來(lái)自聯(lián)邦政府、州政府以及地方當(dāng)局,涉及刑事犯罪和國(guó)家安全等事宜。 ????? 蘋果表示許多請(qǐng)求是正面的?!巴ǔG闆r下,這些請(qǐng)求與盜搶犯罪等刑事調(diào)查、尋找失蹤兒童和老年癡呆癥患者,以及希望阻止自殺行為有關(guān)?!?/p> ????? 蘋果的法律團(tuán)隊(duì)仔細(xì)評(píng)估了這些請(qǐng)求,向當(dāng)局提供了“盡可能最相關(guān)的信息”,甚至多次直接拒絕了對(duì)方的請(qǐng)求。 ????? 蘋果沒(méi)有提供任何涉及iMessage和FaceTime上即時(shí)通訊內(nèi)容的數(shù)據(jù),因?yàn)樘O果稱連它自己也無(wú)法破解這兩項(xiàng)服務(wù)所采取的加密方式。至于國(guó)家安全局能否破解其加密方式,目前仍不得而知。 ????? 蘋果保存的任何與用戶相關(guān)的位置、地圖搜索以及Siri語(yǔ)音搜索數(shù)據(jù)都無(wú)法回溯追蹤到用戶。尚不清楚國(guó)家安全局能否做到這一點(diǎn)。 ????? 蘋果在聲明中沒(méi)有提到電子郵件、圖片、視頻以及存放在蘋果服務(wù)器的其它格式文件, 相當(dāng)于默認(rèn)了上述內(nèi)容受到了有關(guān)部門的監(jiān)控。 ????此外,蘋果獲得了美國(guó)政府的許可,可以僅發(fā)布執(zhí)法部門索取的涉及用戶的“一部分?jǐn)?shù)據(jù)”。(財(cái)富中文網(wǎng)) ????譯者:項(xiàng)航 |
????Embarrassed to find itself on the list of companies from whose servers the National Security Agency claims to have been "directly" collecting data, Apple (AAPL) issued a public statement early Monday that it hoped would allay its customers' concerns. Among the key points: ????? The authorities asked for a ton of information: Between Dec. 1, 2012 and May 31, 2013 the company received 4,000 to 5,000 requests about 9,000 to 10,000 accounts and devices. ????? The requests came from federal, state and local authorities and included both criminal investigations and national security matters. ????? Many of those requests, according to Apple, were benign. "The most common form," it said, "comes from police investigating robberies and other crimes, searching for missing children, trying to locate a patient with Alzheimer's disease, or hoping to prevent a suicide." ????? Apple's lawyers reviewed each request, provided "the narrowest possible set of information," and from time to time rejected the requests outright. ????? Apple does not provide the content of conversations that take place over iMessage and FaceTime because those are encrypted in a way that Apple says it can't break. Whether the NSA can is left unanswered. ????? Apple does not store data related to customers' location, Map searches or Siri requests in a way that can be traced back to the user. Again, whether the NSA could do that is not clear. ????? By omission, Apple's statement implies that the contents of e-mail, photographs, videos and other files stored on Apple's servers are fair game. ????Note too that Apple received the government's permission to release only "some of [the] data" related to law enforcement requests for information about its customers. |
