Yes, which is what I was saying in my comment. If or when it comes to Apple changing this then I would agree it's a battle worth fighting, but that is not what is happening here and that is not what I was correcting in this article itself.
>The main issue is that the wall has been breached:
The wall was breached when we opted to run proprietary OS systems. You have zero clue what is going on in that OS and whether it's reporting; you have to trust the vendor on some level and Apple is being fairly transparent here. I would be far more worried if they did this without saying anything at all.
