No need to push together so much straw. I think the folks at Apple now are doing great things that push things like differential privacy and other techniques in a direction I agree with and I think is better than many other companies. I’ve personally sought out their products since running System 6.0.8 on a PB100’s persisting RAM disk.

Their systems were not compromised. I cannot believe that 7 years later people are still holding that up as an example of why Apple cannot be trusted.
