Yeah, but that lawsuit is bogus. Apple gives developers access to my data only if I click to allow that developer access to my data. Which I, personally, almost never do. But if you do that, then yeah, that developer can take your data and do whatever he wants with it.
Which is why you shouldn't do that.
You're right about one thing though, and that is Apple not trusting me with most powers. They don't trust me, or anyone else with power. I like that stance. I think that should be the default stance of every company that deals with user data. No one gets access to it without the expressed consent of the user.
If you're saying that Apple is giving out your data willy nilly the way FB or Google does, you're just wrong. Now of course, that's a completely different issue than trusting Apple. You should trust no one. And neither should Apple. (To be completely frank, Apple shouldn't even trust you.)
What people like about Apple is that they hold up their end of the bargain. They trust no one.
- justinjlynn 7y agoApple will trust whomever offers them more economic advantage in the long term if they need to be open about the relationship - and short term if they don't and don't think it's too much of a reputational risk. However, never think that you'll always be the one providing them the economic advantage forever - just note that, they'll most likely keep your data forever. Choose wisely.
