I haven't said anything about Apple guaranteeing this, I just am saying that Apple seems more trustworthy to me. And unless you can prove Android is actually better, then I still believe that. I feel like people are misunderstanding my

That's fair. Unfortunately, like with the national politics here, we have two shitty options.

I'm sure there are lots more, too. There's no way Apple kept a complete hold on this.

Ok, thanks for saying that I guess. FYI I wasn't talking directly to you on the second line.

Apple has made policy changes and changes to the app store to make it clearer which apps to avoid. Apple really cares about my privacy, or they tell me they do and I believe them. I think they do because they know how important brand loyalt

I'm not sure what you're saying. Are you saying this is obvious and nothing needs to be done, or that I'm totally wrong or what? Or saying that I'm being a conspiracy theorist by seeing parallels?

Yes, I am not downplaying the role of the British and hoped no one would take it that way. The British were the first on alert as far as I know, and without them it would have been a whole lot worse. USA swoops in towards the end (a large c
