For me I'm paying the premium for a number of reasons, mainly Apple's stance on privacy and security. You'll be hard pressed to find the same security and privacy commitment from any manufacturer of Android or other competing devices.
- samfisher83 10y agoApple was more than willing to give up one of their users when it benefited them: https://www.engadget.com/2016/07/21/kickasstorrents-apple-facebook-homeland-security/ https://www.engadget.com/2016/07/21/kickasstorrents-apple-fa... Android is open source. You can get rid of all the google bits if you really want to.
- eridius 10y agoI don't know how you're reading that article, but to me, it sounds like Apple was likely complying with a legal court order for the information. And it really wasn't very much information, seems to be just the IP address that was used to make an iTunes purchase on a particular day. Not particularly privacy-invading, since this is something that falls well within the information that courts can order Apple to turn over.
