re once tapped your code is no good any more maybe so but it s quite common there are millions of macintosh users who have no idea what s in apple s patented roms many have modems connected how do you know all your business secrets aren t being stolen answer because you trust apple because if any such attempt however sophicsticated came out it would destroy apple s credibility forever the reason i could theoretically trust apple though i m a pc person myself is that apple has to worry about their customers deserting them if they screw up badly enough the government doesn t have any such worry it can change the rules by force to get the outcome it wants this is the ultimate reason why private enterprise is usually more efficient than government agencies
