We trust a lot of organizations to not do illegal things to us. It's not really any different with Apple. You're trusting that the computer you're using to post your comment doesn't have a hardware back door in it. Except I'd argue that the incentives for Apple to do this are less than they would be for other companies. Not blind faith.
- const_cast 1y agoNo, it's blind faith. Trust is a synonym for faith. If it makes you feel better, you can say blind trust, I'm okay with that. And you're correct there's a lot of shit I must blindly trust, too. That's bad. That's not a refutation of my point, you're actually reinforcing it. We've forced ourselves into a situation where blind faith in moral actions is required to function in society. That is ripe for abuse. Which is probably why we see it abused every day.
