Seriously? Where does Apple ask if you want to use the cloud storage separately and explicitly? Does it say we will delete files from your device and move them to our “cloud storage” without involving by your choice or asking for confirmati

An instant loading page without animations and more contrast would have been more fun. The fact that it begins with my IP address reminds me of those dubious VPN ads. City is wrong, I may speak English but it's not my native language.
