No hackers have found otherwise yet - and Apple got caught throttling.
I am not political.

I have never seen Tim criticizing Chinese government or the way of life. Has he?
[doublepost=1528212541][/doublepost]I love Tim Cook and Apple. The majority of these negative comments are likely from people under 30 who don't remember the 90's.
Apple CEO Tim Cook this evening sat down for an exclusive interview with CNN's Laurie Segall, where he discussed everything from his iPhone usage habits to the importance of privacy.
On the subject of device usage, Cook says that when he started using the new Screen Time feature built into iOS 12, he found he was spending too much time on the iPhone. "I found I was spending a lot more time than I should," he said. "I thought I was fairly disciplined about this. And I was wrong."
Cook said that Apple is aiming to provide the tools to consumers to let them make their own decisions about device usage, and what's considered too much will vary from person to person. He said that while Apple wants customers to be "incredibly satisfied and empowered," it's not the goal to get customers to spend all of their time on iOS devices.Cook reiterated his stance on privacy, and called it a "fundamental human right," as he has done in the past. He said it's "not healthy" to point a finger at companies like Facebook, and instead, we should be focusing on making the web an "unbelievable place."Cook said customers can trust Apple to be "on their side." "We're the trusted adviser and company here," he said, explaining that people are not fully aware of how their data is being used and who has access to it. "I think this needs to be addressed."
The interviewer asked Cook whether or not he was concerned about machines taking over the world, and he said it's not something that he worries about. Instead, he is concerned about people becoming more machine-like.Cook said he doesn't consider himself to be political, and suggested that he would not run for political office.He also said that he believes Steve Jobs would support Apple's current trajectory when asked how Jobs would feel "about this moment in time."Several snippets of Cook's full interview, which cover topics like DATA, immigration, tariffs, and more, are available over on CNN and are well worth checking out for those who want to see everything Cook had to say this evening.
Cook also did a separate interview with NPR, which covered topics like privacy, rumors that Apple had access to Facebook users' personal information, the new Screen Time feature, and the Trump administration.

Google is the best search engine. Apple wants the best for it's customers. If you don't like it, change the default search engine.
You think most people agree on those issues because the media only gives airtime to those who agree with it.
That still doesn’t make them hypocritical. Apple is not passing your personal info upstream, you are. Whether Apple gets paid 1B, 10 cents or free the outcome is exactly the same.
They're not getting paid billions of dollars not to protect your privacy. They're getting paid billions of dollars to provide you with the best search engine available by a long shot. The fact that the best search also mines every bit of data possible is unfortunate, but anyone using these devices and websites can do their own research and make an informed decision if they want to.

Customers are being nudged into giving the info which is why Google pays Apple. If you buy a new iPhone, Google will flash a prompt to sign up for a Google account on your very first Google search. And the average customer who has no knowledge of these things would do so.
I think the average person knows what Google's up to. It's all any news organization talks about anymore. People have access to information (using their phone) and they need to make the decision on what's best for them. Apple can't protect people from themselves to this degree, by restricting their feature set. The information is out there in a pretty loud way what Google's doing.
You’re making the assumption people who use google are dumb as a door knob. And the only exposure to google is through iOS. In fact there may be one or two people who have no knowledge of the internets and are unaware of how their personal data is is used. That there maybe a small number of these people doesn’t give your counterpoint any teeth as the outcome is the same regardless of the remuneration. Not to mention one can type in google.com, bing.com etc in the search bar, if one wants to.
No, but because it has been repeatedly proven over 5 years from teardowns, government investigations, etc that biometric data is stored in the Secure Enclave, and the Secure Enclave alone. Keep your Alfoil hat on, it suits you.
Because today Political leaders are out to pass new laws that want to regulate how Apple’s operating system deals with privacy and want their own back doors. If every country wants their own back door where does this end?
