    Regarding Apple and privacy? It’s well documented. Bing it. If you don’t want to, you didn’t feel like knowing more lol.

      Except you made the claim, the burden of proof is on you. From my research, Apple doesn’t give a shit about your privacy. They care just enough to pretend they do

        But it’s well documented! Just like they chose not to undo the encryption over text messages looking for child porn.

        Totally. They totally didn’t, and totally won’t start spying on you now.

        You have “done your own research”. It would be interesting to see your list of unverified anecdotes.

        My list of unverified anecdotes shows that Apple have engineered privacy into the core of all their systems, almost to a fault.

        If you don’t have backups of your data and have not disabled their default security features, you have no chance of restoring your data in the case of device failure. If you die and don’t give permission for your loved ones to access your data, that data is lost.

          https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/en-ww/

          Here, we can be on the same page. No unverified anecdotes. Reading through this, I stand by my claim. Apple goes out of its way to say they care about your privacy, even in their privacy agreement over and over again. But the terms they list are pretty much exactly what you’ll find in any legal document from any corporation that handles your data. It’s up to them what they do with it, and they said it themselves.
