Fair enough. I considered it. Their scanning of people's clouds shattered the illusion of privacy for me and I just couldn't. Probably far better than google, but I'm not sure I personally could class it as good.
Fwiw they have end to end encrypted iCloud backups now.
Their delayed implementation of this has definitely affected my confidence in them. I was very close to considering Apple before that, but when someone shows you their true colours, believe them :).
I mean is there any other phone that offers end-to-end encrypted backups? Also they don’t scan your cloud but they will turn it over with a warrant. Same as any other cloud storage provider. If you cared about privacy you’d use local backups on your computer or now end-to-end encrypted backups with iCloud.
If they can turn it over, then it isn't exactly end to end encrypted... You don't own the keys.
I'll just avoid the cloud... the cloud... is just someone else's computer....
They could turn it over before when there was no encryption. Now they can’t.
