"assisting screen reader" in ios. does not intercept MITM network traffic, attempts de-obfsucate, decrypt, bypass TLS and CAs with fake CA roots with intent to "udnerstand inner workings". this is very far from the "assisting user". you do not need that level of breaking into internals. and besides. if app really wants to assit user there are legitimate ways to do so, like accessibility labels in ios, exposed by app itself to OS. crucial point here - app already exposes it itself. I mean, if you get legal permission from business owner to run this tool and expose their API. sure, run whatever you want (as long as your ad-hoc contract allows). and if you cannot get this contract, you are clearly breaching use and going directly agains what business intended. you are not assisting any user here. you are trying to directly steal trade secrets to replicate their business. |
