In French we use to say "Dans le doute, abstiens-toi". Not sure what would be a common similar expression in English, "when in doubt, don't"? Meaning I consider they can't be trusted simply because we can't be sure what's going on (with Apple, as well as with most other corporations).

I started using Apple in the early to mid-80s and was happy using them. It all changed a few years ago, when I realized I could not be sure they were trustworthy like they used to be and that is not because they were better back then, simply because a few years ago all apps and tools were not constantly connected to the internet and phoning back to them. Realizing that, and disagreeing with a few other recent changes they had made, I decided to stop using them.

I also quit giving them money. Maybe if enough of us were doing that that would help? I'm not even sure at this stage: they're so rich and so powerful do they still even need us?
