No, I know what I am talking about. You, obviously, don't. You will assume the worst. The fact is that the government is trying their damnedest to get Apple to open up the iCloud accounts and are royally p!ssed off that they will not do so. They have threatened all kinds of legal action about it. Apple has just told them they literally cannot comply because they simply DO NOT HAVE THE KEYS or the means to decipher the data they have stored. "Gee, we'd like to help you, but we can't." and "No, we don't own this data, talk to the owners."
You can "Yukyuk" all you want, but you have no clue about Apple's business model and fail to understand their history. They have done such things in the past. Dragnet2, "tens of millions" is mere chicken feed for a company that has $170 BILLION in cash on hand, more liquid cash than the US Government has on hand. Apple is worth more than every business in Russia. . . Apple looks on this as an enhancement of their ecosystem that causes their customers to buy their products and stay with them as customers. For Apple, customer satisfaction and delight is the goal. They understand that if you take care of that, profits will take care of themselves.
You and all the other corporations who chase the bottom line have chosen to forget that pleasing customer is the purpose that keeps the money flowing in. Tick off the customer by abusing them, and they will flee your company. That means ABUSING them by using their data for anything that will compromise their privacy. . . or sharing it with anyone elseincluding the governmentwhen you tell them you will not. Apple understands this.
Uh huh..No sale.
Nothing is secure and when ya sync using icloud or whatever, it's even less secure. Nothing is free, and if it were even relatively secure, you'd be charged for it. Bet the rent.
Nothing is secure, learn it.
BTW, I use some Apple products, but none of them, or anything else I own are voluntarily synced to icloud or anyone else offering those remote data storage services in the clouds.
But feel free use your electronic devices as you wish.
