Apple didn’t leak anything. Blame poor passwords and social engineering for that one.
Sorry, but there have been leaks that were Apple's fault as well, but every major company has these, honestly Amazon has the fewest problems.

I have no doubt the delivery driver would be on their best behavior when delivering, but it doesn’t stop them from quickly scoping out the house for a time when they lose their job or return off-duty.
This is why the system also has a security camera integrated into it. Personally, I am not sure that I would do this since I can just have most things delivered to my work, but I can see how it would be beneficial to some.
On a related note, I’m dumbfounded that no company has ever found a way to encrypt addresses. I remember when Rolex got hacked and it exposed the address of everyone who owned a Rolex. Why the heck isn’t our shipping address just GX432-79-T65 at this point? Sure, the delivery services would have to have it decrypted, but I don’t need every EBay seller knowing where I live. A virtual P.O. Box basically, that forwards to your actual house. Lots of people have P.O. Boxes to either protect their address or look more professional, but few actually need/want that mail to sit in the post office.
Honestly if it was encrypted like this, it would have to be a universal system that all carriers could read, which means that it would be super easy to decrypt as well. Additionally, if something is delivered to the wrong address right now, you can easily walk it down the street to the correct address, but the chances of that happening if the address is encrypted becomes smaller.

i am already in the Apple ecosystem for the last 30 years.... not about to jump ship now. Plus, I trust Apple more with user security than those other companies who make money from selling my info.
Don't kid yourself, read the fine print, Apple sells your info as well.

That's not my problem, AMZN just sucks.
Here's one bad one. AMZN said it was out for delivery than at 3 pm said there was a delay. The next day same thing but instead of delay shipping damage. I called to find out WTF is going on. They said the items were damaged and they didn't know when I would get them. These were Zagg Screen protectors for our new iPhone 8 Plus at work. I canceled the order. Ordered 4 of them on Amazon Prime Now, drove to Best Buy to get the rest and when I got back from BB. APN had the others delivered. That only took an hour.
FYI I have everything delivered to work. It's in a major business area not some where remote.
You are blaming the wrong entity, the issue is the delivery carrier, honestly though if it is available with Prime Now, I always order that way now, otherwise regular Amazon seems to turn up when promised 99% of the time, sometimes earlier.

I have never, not even once, seen a female delivery person from Amazon or FedEx or UPS or any of the other courier services that convey my Amazon deliveries, let alone one who appears as young, pretty, freshly washed and pressed and benign looking as that lady shown in the ad.
While they have all been professional in behavior so far, they all look pretty exhausted and rough by the time they get to my house.
Really? We get them all the time from Amazon, no one else though.

Friends and family is fine. But their big push is delivery. I know I have a new UPS guy every week. Not like I know the dude on a personal level.
Strange, ours has been the same for about 5 years, unless he is sick or off that day.
