> What they got very very wrong was the public reaction to it. What they got very wrong is that this fundamentally changes the nature of iPhones -- they are no longer user agents; in fact, they're actively scanning user data on behalf of another party. That change doesn't just make people feel uncomfortable, it opens the door for untold myriads of abuses. It's one thing if iCloud servers scan user data - those servers never were assumed to be user agents. It's entirely different when user-owned devices do this.
