This is US site. Apple is US company. The biggest company in the world, source of so much pride. So tons and tons and tons of fanboyism here is inevitable. I'd say most of it is damn well earned.
That said, fanboyism makes people blind and uncritical, and (at least to me) its apparent company like Apple needs some good old criticism, rather than blind worship. Otherwise they will fall (if not fallen) into "we know whats best for you and you have no say in it" like with cough cough "child porn" filters or battery-gate.
I truly honestly don't trust their "we are more secure" marketing pitch, especially as non-US person.
At the end, its just another corporation driven by huge army of managers with main focus on salaries and bonuses. The idea that they are somehow morally better than everybody else when they keep hiring from companies like Facebook is pretty dangerous and goes back to beginning of my post.
