It’s not giving good results because this is bullshit. Think about how every single thing that Apple does is scrutinized to the nth degree. They recently had a slate of bad press that amounted to “did a thief grab your passcode and then steal your phone? They can do bad things with it!” If what this poster claimed was anywhere close to true, how many “Apple outed closeted person when entire coffee shop can see he’s using Grindr” stories would there have been?

Lol no apple pays google to disappear this info and make it very hard to find.
It also happened like 4-5 years ago, and was not covered by any major news org, so it would be hard to find anyway.
It was for macos not IOS and everyone found out about this feature when apple server went down and nobody could start apps for a bit.
Im having a hard time finding any info about it either, but I’ll keep looking.
You should be aware that macOS might transmit some opaque information about the developer certificate of the apps you run. This information is sent out in clear text on your network.
It CONFIRMS everything I said! the only thing it disputes is that its not the “application hash”, but the “apps certificate id” which is a meaningless distinction because it actually makes it easier to figure out which apps they’re running.
the only baseless accusation here was when you said I was bullshitting because you couldn’t find it on google on 2 seconds 🤦
Is there more info on that phone home vulnerability? Googling it isn’t giving good results.

You’ve got another baseless accusation in the first sentence of this post. Anyway, the person who commented here on your post has it:

let me read you a quote from that blog post:
