It's all about the feeling and that just proves how good Apples Marketing and Branding is. I own several products myself (iphones, macbook, mac mini...) and for some time and certain tasks these devices are awesome. Nevertheless Apple is a huge company trying to get more money (like all global players). You just can't trust an entity like this and if you do you are a fool and hopefully will pay for being so naive one day. The problem is that only players like Apple can combine this beautiful design with devices that feel like high-quality products while soothing your fears with nice-made advertising lies. Nowhere else you'll get the same feeling of comfort / security etc pp and THAT IS THE REASON stuff like osmocom BB / REAL linux phones (openmoko) etc. did not have the success they'd need to develop into mature products made for real humans. So we are just oil in this big machinery to keep everything running and getting bigger every day and please don't think that anyone cares about your privacy. If you want to keep things to yourself - don't tell anyone on fckbook and don't use a damn iphone to communicate it.
