The solution is to stop putting your data on other people’s computers. You can’t control other people’s computers. Apple does not care about you any more than any other trillion dollar corpo. Take back control.

Forgot to add one for “blasts,” only “blasted.” Now I’m replying from my inbox because the post will no longer load. I love keyword filters!
