## What Jamie wrote

This is a great set of improvements on the way! I love the addition of iMessage Contact Key Verification. This sounds a lot like what [Signal](https://signal.org) has always had where you can verify in person and create additional confidence that your messages are going to the right person.

> For even greater security, users can compare a Contact Verification Code in person, on FaceTime, or through another secure channel.

And not to be missed is Advanced Data Protection for iCloud which will finally support end-to-end encryption of all of your photos in iCloud as well. That is a great add! 🔐
