Indeed. If they really gave a shit they'd be getting Apple to open up their APIs so we can get data out of Reminders and Notes etc without having to resort to necromancy and hacking...

They literally did that too via DMA. Why are you bullshitting? :)

Where’s the documentation and API contracts? How can I get my notes data out?

As an Apple user, I don’t want third party apps to be able to have access to that data. Apple has earned my trust, but most third party apps have not.

I buy Apple specifically because I want the level of privacy that their platform provides. If third party devs don’t like it, they can ship for Android.

You know you're free to just not use a feature, application, or deny consent?

Privacy is about making access transparent, not by having customers in tiers.

I swear there's a parallel world with lunatics saying they are glad that only XCode can access their file system and processes and they don't want that Vim, VSC, Emacs or IntelliJ crap.

Funny, they burned that trust for many by being so opaque on every level of their pipeline, from consumers to developers, from hardware to software.
