That every successful tech company has to play ball and give up whatever asked. If they don’t then they won’t exist for long. That everything you say and do is stored, cataloged, and searchable. Hell I’m reasonably sure nifi wouldn’t exist otherwise. There is a notable example from 2011

But the argument is about using microphone, and despite Android being fairly open platform, where you can controll every single aspect of the device all the way down to assembly, I have yet to seen the smoking gun that objectively proves that googlePlayServices, or whatever, listens to you 24/7 and transmits all that to the servers.
- Forbo 3y agoApple knew they didn't need to unlock the phone. At some point a vuln was going to get discovered that would let them in, and that's exactly what happened. This way Apple gets to look like a privacy respecting shining beacon of goodness for users, while simultaneously handing over iCloud access and letting China do whatever the hell it is they do.
