Apple confirms iOS kernel code left unencrypted intentionally
 A move like this fits with a more general ideology Apple has been advocating for the last three years. Privacy, security, and ultruism. Tim Cook has put is mark on the company. One of the first things he did was apologize, (for maps) something unheard of in Apple's culture. I haven't drank the cool-aid and Apple has a lot of issues. I do see they however are making attempts at differentiating from the general corporate behavior of the telecoms and Google. Cook is differentiating from Jobs as well.
