you don't hear these horror stories often, but often enough to reinforce my conviction to never ever ever fucking ever buy a single apple product
Also if you don't have your ~~date~~ data under your control, you are at the mercy of some company.
I have an apple iphone but I back my photos up with Immich and passwords with firefox, Spotify instead of Apple music, Telegram, etc and I'm essentially isolated from the Apple ecosystem, if they lock me out of my account I lose pretty much nothing except the value of the phone
