I could argue that Apple is just as responsible for this as Facebook. How can they claim to take privacy seriously if it’s clearly possible for bad actors to get around the rules multiple times! How is Apple any less implicated in this than Facebook was in the CA scandal when a bad actor violated its policies and posed as an academic research project to gain access to user data it then sold to third parties? If you are going to hold Facebook accountable for CA, why does Apple get a pass when it enables third parties access to my data?

And you'd be wrong. > How can they claim to take privacy seriously if it’s clearly possible for bad actors to get around the rules multiple times! That's BS. You might as well say: "how can they claim to take security seriously, if it's clearly possible for bad actors to find exploitable bugs in their products multiple times!" Apple has a tough job, and it won't do it perfectly because no one can. It's bizarre to claim that it's excellent but not perfect performance somehow makes it guilty of the things it's trying to stop.
