Question: who owns the data stored with iCloud? Do developers still get to own their data, or is it going to be subject to sniffing from Apple?
- plg 12y agoUnlike some other companies (FB, Dropbox, Google) Apple's business model doesn't depend on sniffing your personal information.
- cmelbye 12y agoAnd more importantly, how do you export your data and move it to a different provider? How do you take your app that relies on CloudKit and make it cross platform? If the answer is "you can't, this is only meant to help the Apple ecosystem", I'm not sure of the broad usefulness of this.
- avree 12y agoWhy would Apple care about your data? They do not make money off ad sales, they make money off platform adoption. A private and secure platform results in more adoption.
