There’s a simple answer, you should have purchased a Mac! People who buy PC’s are like the British continuing to buy British cars. It gives them something to work on every weekend instead of taking a drive!
Well, I really didn't want to bring that up, so as to not make this a religious discussion, however, there is a clear difference between the way that Microsoft and Apple deal with encryption. If you encrypt your i-device, and lose your password, Apple can't do anything at all to recover your data because they simply do not have the key to do so. They can't 'fix' it for you because they don't have the key. Similarly, when the NSA asks for Joe Public's data, Apple cannot provide them with the ability to decrypt it.This, to me, is a major selling point, not because I'm doing anything wrong or illegal, but simply because what I'm doing on my phone is none of the feral government's freaking business.
There is a sharp contrast here. I think we should act accordingly.
