> Privacy is a fundamental human right. At Apple, it’s also one of our core values. Your devices are important to so many parts of your life. What you share from those experiences, and who you share it with, should be up to you. We design Apple products to protect your privacy and give you control over your information. It’s not always easy. But that’s the kind of innovation we believe in.
When Apple markets themselves this way, people expect their actions to be in line with their words. Making iCloud device backups vulnerable to law enforcement demands is not in line with Apple's privacy-oriented marketing, and suggests that Apple's vocal defense of encryption is just a public relations strategy.
Somehow it seems like you have mistaken my comment for sarcasm. I wasn’t straw manning anyone, I was simply lauding a principled stand and articulating my desire to see that in more places.
