You're ignoring all of the measures Apple implementatedin the 10 years since those Snowden leaks.

You're also making a baseless claims that Apple knowingly participated with the NSA, which Apple denies indicating it was an inside threat actor working directly with the NSA without Apple's knowledge.

Some data is stored in other providers clouds, Amazon and Google specifically and those clouds are the sources that were compromised. Apple has added end to end encryption to mitigate that.

For their own cloud services, the measures Apple goes to secure their servers is not trivial. They have employed strict chain of custody and it's why they call out services that do their off device processes using Apple hardware.

Apple is working to build out their own cloud but anyone with basic knowledge understands that the hardware they manufacture isn't the type used by cloud providers.

The changes in how containers work on Mac OS is because of their own internal work on using their own hardware for containers that are being used to expand their internal cloud because even Apple with their billion dollar contracts with built in penalities doesn't trust Google.

Knowing what I know, I put Google dead last when it comes to my data. Microsoft and Amazon are several magnitudes more trustworthy and I don't trust them either because they openly work with government agencies.

But sure, keep using Android because Apple isn't perfect. Google appreciates you're choosing to feed their algorithms directly.
