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

Exactly. The issue is that the app still sends the notification to the cloud server. The cloud server doesn’t forward that notif to your device if you have notifs turned off, but it still gets sent to the server regardless. Which means it’s still subject to be shared with the government.
