At Apple, we build our products and services with industry-leading privacy and security technologies designed to give users control of their data and keep personal information safe.

These techniques posed significant risks to user security and privacy, including the potential for metadata exposure and enabling unwanted messages, spam, and phishing attacks. We will continue to make updates in the future to protect our users.
