My point is that when a Mac uploads my data to Icloud without permission, then that is malware from my perspective.The fact that it's malware baked in by the manufacturer for the benefit of the manufacturer is irrelevant to the fact that it is, in fact, malware. Because once anything is in Icloud, it gets handed over to the NSA et al, which makes it effectively public. Even files that are never saved get surreptitiously uploaded to Apple's servers. Besides, while it would be bad enough if they "merely" handed everything over to the NSA, I don't believe for a second that they're not also selling this stuff to advertisers in some capacity. Fact is, Apple gadgets are a privacy nightmare and I have no intention of buying them in the future. |
