Here’s the thing - the same thing that Microsoft is being roasted for saying they’re going to implement is the thing that Apple are being roasted for not having implemented yet. The difference is -rightly or wrongly- people trust Apple in a way that they simply don’t Microsoft.
Apple zealots trust apple. The rest of us don't give a rat's ass what Apple does.
Their stance on default privacy and sticking a finger to law enforcement is leagues above both Microsoft and Google/Android. So far at least.
You are correct... yet it is so sad that a modicum of respect for their clients is held up as if Apple self immolated out of principle... the bar is THAT low
No. They are just doing it differently - they have proprietary p2p networks and such doing obscure shit. They are similar to Telegram in that. Good to their users as much as they need that to maintain balance of interests.
Is it the Multipeer Connectivity you're talking about? I've never heard of it before. It does seem like something that could be used to track users.
At this point if you don't want a custom built or Linux PC, I see apple as the corporate gold standard. Windows is a glued together heap of slow trash for a while now. So many bugs, removed features, and lots of other crap. Macos just works, it's a lot cleaner and more integrated.
Corporations need centralized governance that active directory provides.
There are other ways.
