It's vague on purpose. They saw the peasants ravaging MS for giving too many details. It's vague enough that most people won't give it a second thought and opt in anyway. Because it is the new shiny thing from Apple that they totally just invented and not copied from other companies.

Well I give them credit for trying to be transparent with the server code (they made a press release about it just recently), but I worry that you may be right.

It could be the same shit.

I’d like to believe that Apple recognizes the value in privacy, given they’re making it a central part of their brand, and I know it’s been a big part of their tech up until now…..

But I’m also aware that they’re beholden to the same cash that corrupts everyone else.

Time will tell.
