Follow-up to my blog post about how Apple silently enabled iCloud Keychain .
When you update from Ventura to Sonoma , updating Sonoma causes iCloud to be silently enabled.
But I had no way of knowing that, because iCloud is not enabled on any of my devices.
When I disabled the Mac mini, my passwords did not get removed from Apple 's servers.
If you don't keep the information, your passwords and passkeys aren't available on your device.
An encrypted copy of your Keychain data is kept on iCloud servers.
If you turn iCloud Keychain back on, your password and passkey will sync to your device again.
