I love how these companies (Apple, Microsoft, Google, etc) are refusing to hand over customer data while claiming they're doing it in the interests of the customers.
You know that behind closed doors the companies are saying, "That's OUR fucking data. We own it. Do you know how hard it was to get everyone to give us all their personal data? It was fucking crazy hard. We're not giving it away."

- haha what? i mean it's been made clear they have turned over data, but that's unrelated obviouslyprophetone
- Yes, they have turned over specific data and only when required by court order. That's not the same as giving access to all the data.nb
- Ok well maybe we have diff defs of ALL data. They don't have ALL of mine. What they do have is anything on cloud.prophetone
- I think any reasonable knows that Apple et al are terrified of lost profits, trust. But the side they present is no less true, this is bad for users.prophetone
- Of course it's presented this way, humans could care less about warnings, it's only when the prob is coming through the front door that they fnlly pay attn.prophetone
- I mean i think everyone knows why a Facebook is worth billions as a free service... user data. Of course they have a death grip on it.prophetone
- The future is crazy yo!prophetone
- Yeah, I mean, they are providing data when legally required. That's very different than "giving it away".nb
