Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), has very strict rules regarding the security of its iDevices, and a recent case from the USA puts their rigidity and logic into perspective. According to some men in the US, the company Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), refused to give them the password for access Apple ID- that belonged to their mother who had died a short time ago, despite the fact that she named them as heirs to her fortune. The woman had used the tablet until around the day of her death and despite their quality as heirs, the company Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), refused to give them the password Apple ID- who would have allowed access to the iPad tablet owned by their mother.
I have always been a fan of Apple but this incident has changed my opinion of them completely. Their utter lack of understanding and discretion in a time of great personal sadness has been astonishing. For a company that sells itself on the idea that we are all part of one big Apple family, they have been very cold.
Initially, the American company asked for the woman's written permission to provide access to the Apple ID, but being informed of her death, they asked for copies of the death certificate, will, a letter from the woman's lawyer and a court decision requiring the provision of the password . In February, Apple updated the terms and conditions of use of iCloud mentioning that Apple IDs cannot be transferred by users and all the data available in them will be deleted at the time of the owner's death, and in this case the company intends to comply with its provisions .
