This isn't the first time, nor will it be the last: the only reason I'm actually using iCloud Keychain is because, despite always turning it off and feeling like I needed to keep doing it over and over again every time I got a new device, one day I was in a discussion with someone about it and I went to show them how I turn off most of the iCloud features, and I discovered I had actually failed and now had already been using iCloud Keychain and so all my passwords were already in it.
- tailspin2019 2y agoI had the exact same experience with iCloud Drive (or whatever it is/was called) years ago. I kept turning it off and never agreed to use it and one day discovered it was on anyway and a bunch of my stuff was already in the cloud. Pretty egregious behaviour.
- Teever 2y agoYeah this is the kind of behaviour that I'm hoping the EU will step in and regulate. It would be amazing the victims of this kind of egregious privacy violating behavior would receive a cut of the fine that the offender is charged. That would give people an incentive to report this kind of shit.

- pritambaral 2y agoCan't tell if sarcasm, but if not: This is precisely the problem. Apple treats its users as dumb cattle. "We know better. Shut up and be happy with what we force down your throat." Of course, Apple can do no wrong. Forced lock-in? "Don't you feel so much more secure now that you're firmly in our garden? Our walled garden that you cannot escape from?"
