If anyone is in need of a more secure option in these dystopian times: drip keeps all your data on your phone. You can export the data, so you can keep the tracked data when changing phones. I only use it for tracking my cycle and sometimes symptoms though, so I can’t say much about using it for birth control.
Apple’s Cycle Tracking app is also locally and E2E encrypted in iCloud.
When your phone is locked with a passcode, Touch ID, or Face ID, all of your health and fitness data in the Health app, other than your Medical ID, is encrypted. Any health data synced to iCloud is encrypted both in transit and on our servers. And if you have a recent version of watchOS and iOS with the default two-factor authentication and a passcode, your health and activity data will be stored in a way that Apple can’t read it.
This means that when you use the Cycle Tracking feature and have enabled two-factor authentication, your health data synced to iCloud is encrypted end-to-end and Apple does not have the key to decrypt the data and therefore cannot read it.
Sure. It’s encrypted. And your private data only stays on your device. Pinky swear.
With our 10 billion $ in ad revenue, you can trust that your data never makes it to a third party unencrypted 😚
I’m not sure what that license has to do with Apple’s privacy policy. Apple uses ML to place ads alongside relevant content. They provide no customer information to advertisers. They generate so much ad revenue by keeping a sizable 30% from the advertisers.

onlinepersona posts that on every comment they make. They’re licensing their comments under CC BY-SA-NC 4.0. Given the context of the conversation it may have sounded confusing.
I too trust every word apple says.
That’s the second time you posted that. What does it have to do with Apple’s privacy?
The link has nothing to do with the comment, some people just add that to all their posts because they think it will prevent LLMs from using their comments as training data. It’s useless and very stupid imo, equivalent to people on facebook a few years back copy and pasting that text about owning their pictures and not giving fb permission to use them even though permission was already given in the sign up agreement.
I actually hate this take. Unlike facebook, on lemmy, you actually own your data. Will this ownership of data be enforced against LLM companies? Probably not. Stackoverflow had everything under a license that requires attribution, but LLM’s don’t attribute and got away scot free.
But… the license that onlinepersona uses is less restrictive, rather than the default of an individual having absolute copyright over content they make. With onlinepersona’s comments, I know exactly what I can legally do with their comments.
As for everybody’s else comments, like yours, I don’t really know. Can I quote you, with or with out attribution? Can I legally remix comments? Do I have to ask permission before I use your comment in my presentation? You didn’t sign any kind of license/agreement that explicitly stated what they can do with your comments, did you?
I’m never gonna complain about someone explicitly releasing their work under a more free license. I find it frustrating that the fediverse is the “free culture” place and all that, but we don’t have a way to set copyright (or more likely, copyleft), on our comments. Instead, every comment is the equivalent of proprietary, source available software.
People mad about onlinepersona’s CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 license, like the other poster who is calling them stupid, are literally mad about receiving free shit. Stay mad, I guess. Personally, I’m happy that I am given content under a more free license than proprietary.
I’m glad this article is about Clue. I hope I can continue to trust them.
I’ve been using Clue for years and it’s nicely trans-friendly and not-pink. When I was first looking for a period app, many options were focused on fertility–either seeking or avoiding pregnancy–which rubbed me the wrong way.
Why in the fuck would the government need this information?
When they start prosecuting women for miscarriages and suspected abortions under Trump’s national abortion ban.
Literally on video saying he doesn’t want a national abortion ban, but now they are going to take data from period apps? Even the pro lifers aren’t this unhinged.
Give a sec, they’ll get there
