@zackwhittaker Apple is a corporation and as such, doesn't have a stance, that was a marketing slogan. No more.

Apple reportedly working on creepware, aka surveillance glasses and other AI-enabled always-on devices. -
Cryptographic public-keys are one way that one can have an identity (on the Fediverse, and elsewhere) while also having privacy — through a pseudonymous identity.@klu9 FYI: with Autonomi anyone can register a human readable id that will work for anyone else using the same app.
So if a user of the app knows your human readable id the app can verify that messages using the id come from you or are readable only by you.
Essentially the app makes a key pair and stores the public part on the network at the address which is a hash of your public human readable ID. Anyone can use the app and your human readable ID to look up your public key.
