Humm. . . Who is capable and benefits from such an attack on Apple? I’m just paranoid I guess.

If it were to happen (if), no problem if you religiously back up your data. I’m just saying... (Still some folks who think they don’t need to back up their precious photos, contacts, docs, etc. Foolish.) Easy enough to restore anything that is lost, if you have a back up (if).

Keep all data on an external drive and back it up daily...
