Apple claims to be the privacy king. They deserve scrutiny.

Or the EU with their online chat control. First round they couldn’t get a majority. Then, they sneakily turned it around so people had to vote to NOT want it. The day they did the second vote, many were on holiday and thus it passed.

Apples sets the example.

a bad example from apple becomes the status quo for other companies.

Microsoft pioneer it with "ask again in 30 minutes". Or maybe someone else, can't tell for sure who was the original bastard.

Most companies did that before Apple, yes. I hate that trend.
