Just look at the new HoloLens: It uses the cloud in order to analyze the objects in front of you at your office, your house or whatever on real time. Combine that with this with companies like Apple tracking your pulse in your clock(that gives them knowledge about your deep emotions an activities on real time). Add companies like Google that track your phone, your car(with the maps abilities) on real time. Add to this companies that track what your friends are doing on real time: https://www.apertus.org/facebook https://www.apertus.org/facebook This gives the US secret services more control over people than Stasi had. With the difference that they control all the people in the world. Too much power with so small oversight.

If the user is not in control of the encryption, then it's nothing more than a pinky-promise that they won't peek at your data, for example, if a new management team takes over tomorrow.

    For many people this is a reasonable risk. If they pulled something like that it would start a huge legal battle, and it would seriously harm their reputation. I suspect that pushing out a change of this sort would also require a system update, which you could always delay until it's been carefully vetted by others. At least with Apple you can maintain a fairly small chain of trust, since they have greater control over their hardware. Being in control of the encryption keys is unlikely to protect you from hardware backdoors or state-sponsored attacks.

  It says data is encrypted in transit and at rest, it does not say that data is E2E encrypted. That's a big difference. They could (probably are) just using TLS and disk encryption.
