Google doesn’t require a warrant, Apple does.
Since google wasn’t requiring a court order before this (like Apple), I’m not sure how this makes them better. From this statement, both Google and Apple will be moving forward with a legal requirement to access this metadata in the future. They seem to be doing this together.
it seems they were both caught giving up data without a court order before and are now both doing the right thing.
Google has always had good privacy and security, it just doesn't apply to them! Which is the problem.
But they’ll sell it to you.
