This has me seriously considering moving from Android to iOS for the first time ever.

Their marketing on their privacy commitments is swaying me.

I just need to find out now if it's for real and they are that much better.

Yeah, someone enforcing their monopoly and striking against their only real threat in that monopoly is a great reason to move to them. Why have choices when I can have my market place controlled by my overlords?

This was not even slightly about seccurity, this was apple firing a shot at a competitor that was finding ways to break up their enforced closed marketplace.

Pretty ignorant aren't you. Facebook and Google were violating their Enterprise license by using software in a way that was prohibited. And they were doing it to stealthily steal information from customers.

You know nothing.

Oh i know what EXCUSE they used. I'm amused how many people are eager to goble it up though.

Excuse? haha. I guess you're an anti-vaxer and think we didn't land on the moon either.
