    Nice. I just wish that their stuff didn't cost so much. And that they hobble users so much, on devices that they "own".

    Turns out Europe’s GDPR is not as useless as the cookie law.

    Apple continues to take privacy seriously. As a user, I appreciate that and love to see Apple make hardware and cloud storage changes to make retrieving the encryption key impossible on their end (at least without someone literally spending millions on ONE phone). This latest step on having all apps to have a privacy policy just makes sense because several major apps are not completely upfront about their access and sharing upon installing.
