Say what you want about Apple and their motivations, we really need them to win this case.

Sometimes i like Apple, sometimes I don’t. This is certainly the former.

They’re certainly less-bad about this stuff than Google, Facebook, etc.

I didn’t say I like Apple or that I trust them or anything. I said we want them to win this lawsuit.

Ignoring the fact they already did this in China? And by the way, you have no way of knowing when your data was uploaded to the Chinese servers

I’m not sure how this is incompatible with what I said. Are you saying you don’t want them to win this lawsuit?

They care more about protecting their IP and public image, not end privacy of users.
They make a big fuss anytime a public request comes up like the FBI a few years ago, but they have zero issue funneling everything into the NSA just like every other Silicon Valley shmuck.

Apple is all proprietary anyways, so you shouldn’t trust them still, even if they win this court case. I recommend using Librebooted Dell OptiPlex 780’s or Dell E4300 Latitude’s with Trisquel GNU/Linux + Tor Browser with Javascript disabled if your looking for the most privacy in your internet activites. You can do what you wish with this information.

Oh my god the responses are so aggravating
It does not fucking matter what we think of Apple. If they lose this case, we all lose.
This isn’t a discussion about what hardware to buy dude jfc take step back and look around you for 2 seconds
