Paywalled. Archived link. While I have no love for Apple, and have audited their privacy claims for this and other privacy communities over the years, adding an opt-in toggle to allow anonymized data sharing for improved service does not seem like a “backflip” in privacy, any more than other user feedback channels would be.

But go ahead and downvote because I didn’t just roll with your Apple bad narrative, silly munchkins

Free thinker

Doesn’t care at all about the truth, only casting reality to fit his pre-existing worldview

I'd only have to explain how that opt in is predatory, to be understood, to an apple apologist like you

Did you mean to compliment Apple apologists and me or did you mean something else?

Most days yes. What is it like understanding everything?
