In this video I discuss how a recent DOJ letter revealed that Apple and Google were sending peoples push notifications to foreign governments.

      The question is - are they off so they are not sent or are they off so you don’t see them? Sorry for tinfoil

          I think they are saying the notifications are still sent. They are going from the app servers to the push servers. From the push servers they COULD go to the Gov and to your phone. Your have the notifications turned off so they don’t go to your phone. Doesn’t mean they don’t get sent elsewhere though
