Re "anonymizing DNA": In a sense, isn't an individual's DNA sequence the closest thing to a perfect and intrinsic identifier? Only fails to work in the case of identical twins ...

Apple says "Less than 0.00673% of customers have been affected by government information requests." That's approximately 1 out of every 14,000 -- seems like a lot to me!
