> Apple seems to want to position itself as the device that guarantees privacy and security.
And you have a problem with that because?
> Apple would like to maintain exclusive access to a market segment that values security and privacy above all.
Apple would like all the market. The fact they identified a currently underserved niche is just part of their game.
> In such a market segment, the price per device doesn't really matter. My view is consistent with the apparent "horror" prices seen for the new iPhone.
The cheapest iPhone is $350USD, and includes the same security and privacy focus as their most expensive device. Apple charges no premium for security.
Your problem should be with Google, Samsung, Facebook, and the Ad companies. That you are trying to shame Apple for recognizing the need for privacy and acting on it makes absolutely no sense.
