Apple's best product is now privacy
Though I think apples "pro privacy" stance is likely just a happy accident I tend to agree.<p>Either you choose a somewhat open platform, or you choose privacy. One would have thought/hoped that they were tightly coupled.<p>As it is today I can not buy a phone without having a deep bottomless disdain for it. Not the hardware but the software. And I don't even expect that much.<p>I have given up entirely, the slither of hope is that in the future we can decouple the smart in smart phone with the phone. A truly dumb phone that I can interface from another device, a device I have <i>some</i> control over that I don't have to sell my soul to.
