蘋果iOS9.3新功能可提醒用戶設備正遭"監控"
Nobody likes being monitored. But even if you suspected your company is following your activities on the iPhone, would you know where to check?
沒有人喜歡被監控。但即使你懷疑你的公司正在監控你在iPhone上的操作，你知道該去哪裏檢查嗎？In the next iteration of its smartphone operating system, iOS 9.3, Apple is looking to make this an easier task. According to Reddit user MaGNeTiX, the latest beta of iOS 9.3 has a message telling users their iPhone is being supervised. The message is as prominent as can be, both on the device's lock screen and in the About section.
蘋果iPhone的下一代操作系統iOS 9.3將會讓這件事變得簡單。根據Reddit網站上的MaGNeTiX透露，最新的iOS 9.3測試版能夠推送消息，告知用戶他們的iPhone正被監控中。該消息提示會盡可能的醒目，在設備的鎖屏界面和行程上都能顯示。"This iPhone is managed by your organisation," the message on the lock screen says. And in the About screen, you get a little more detail, with a message saying your iPhone's supervisor can monitor your Internet traffic and locate your device.
鎖屏上的消息是這樣顯示的："這臺iPhone由您的公司管理。"而在行程界面上，你會看到更多的細節。消息會這樣顯示：監控你手機的人能夠監控你的網絡流量、定位你的設備。
To be clear: It doesn't look like this feature will let you turn off company supervision or increase your privacy in any way. It's merely there as a warning, providing more transparency to users, some of which might not even be aware their employer is monitoring their iPhone.
需要明確的是，這個消息推送功能並不能讓你關閉公司的監控或者加強隱私保護。這僅僅是一種警告，向用戶透露更多信息。畢竟一些人也許根本沒有意識到僱主正在監控他們的iPhone。The news comes amidst a legal battle between Apple and the FBI, which seeks Apple's help in decrypting the iPhone of one of the terrorists responsible for last year's attack in San Bernardino, Calif. More precisely, the FBI wants Apple to create a new version of iOS that would be used specifically on the shooter's iPhone, disabling some of its security features. So far, Apple stood firm in its decision not to yield to the government's demands, claiming it would affect "everyone who owns an iPhone."
在這些新消息釋出之際，蘋果公司和FBI正有法律上的糾紛。FBI希望蘋果能夠幫助破解參與去年聖貝納迪諾襲擊案的恐怖分子的iPhone。更準確地說，FBI希望蘋果能夠爲該射擊者的手機特地開發一個新的iOS版本，從而使其中的一些安全功能失效。截止目前爲止，蘋果堅持不服從政府的要求，他們表示如果這麼做，會給"每一位擁有iPhone的人"帶來負面影響。
