This privacy talking is getting boring. Looks like he doesn’t have anything better to talk about like.. Macs???
It’s easy for Tim to say this now when the bulk of apples revenues and profits come from selling hardware. But what happens now that Apple is getting into the subscription business? How do they offer a compelling TV product if they know nothing about me and what I like to watch and can’t share that with the content creators making the shows? Also how does Tim propose non-hardware companies make money when people don’t want to pay for things? The reason the advertising model exists is because people want services like Facebook and Google search to be “free”.
HomePod has some of the best sound in smart speakers."...if we can't make the best product, we don't go in"
*Except for smart speakers.
The thing that’s boring you is the #1 tech issue of our time, and the reason, in spite of my legitimate frustrations with Apple, I’m all in on their gadgets and platforms.This privacy talking is getting boring. Looks like he doesn’t have anything better to talk about like.. Macs???
Tim Cook's Warren Buffett groveling perfectly demonstrates why big tech is seen as monolithic, intended to benefit rich investors and CEOs rather than consumers at large.Cook went on to say that he's frustrated tech is seen as monolithic, lumping Apple in with other companies like Facebook.
Deal! Just show me your MBA from an elite business school and master the supply chain at a Fortune 500 company, and it’s on!If I would have known all it took to be a CEO was to book an interview every single day to repeat the same talking points I woulda quit school a long time ago. Hey all you other MacRumors people, anyone want to help me start a business in my garage? I'll be the CEO and you can be the Wozniak.
hen how will you browse the iCloud data on your “other” devices if it has on device key?

The $9 Billion Google pays Apple every year says differently.
If apple is on "our" side, why don't they encrypt iCloud backup data on the iPhone before uploading?
Google doesn't get my identifying information. So my privacy is still intact.
With your private key
What do you mean they don't encrypt it? Are you serious!? Of course they do.
I don’t think boots walking knows you can change it.

It isn’t that what other companies/services are doing. Who is collecting non-anonymized data?Creators don’t need personal data to measure the success of their products and apple doesn’t need to have access to you data to recommend relevant shows. That algorithm can either be easily ran on device based on your viewing history, or anonymized before it’s sent to apple
The poster you replied to is using a logical fallacy to imply Apple doesn't care about privacy due to some imaginary problem that exists with Apple and iCloud/encryption.

if you had looked in his signature, you would have seen that he's typing his post on a 2015 MacBook Pro...one of the last great Apple keyboards, and seldom defective.Presumably the keyboard that you have no problem to type all these posts with /s
It is encrypted on apples servers. That means apple can decrypt it or be forced to decrypt by the government.
Does he give interviews every single day of his life?
