Cheating Husband Sues Apple After Wife Discovered “deleted” Messages He Sent to S3x Workers
Apple is to be sued by a businessman after “deleted” messages he sent to s3x workers were found by his wife on another device.
The cheating husband, who is reportedly a middle-aged man from England, claims Apple’s lack of transparency over deleted messages led to his wife filing for divorce.
He told The Times he had turned to prostitutes in the final years of his marriage, and would contact them through the iMessage app on his iPhone before deleting the texts.
But the messages were eventually discovered by his wife on the family’s iMac computer, along with messages going back several years he believed he had wiped.
“If you are told a message is deleted, you are entitled to believe it’s deleted,” He told the Times newspaper.
“It’s all quite painful and quite raw still. It was a very brutal way of finding out [for my wife].
“My thoughts are if I had been able to talk to her rationally and she had not had such a brutal realisation of it, I might still be married.”
He added: “Divorce is an extraordinarily stressful process and you have children and family dynamics.
“In my opinion it’s all because Apple told me my messages were deleted when they weren’t.
“If the message had said, ‘These messages are deleted on this device’, that would have been a clue, or ‘These messages are deleted on this device only’ that would have been even better.”
He is now pursuing legal action against the company for the more than £5 million he lost in his divorce and legal costs, claiming the company does not make it clear to customers that deleted messages can appear on other Apple devices.
