Surprising somehow, to me.
One would imagine Apple could make a good amount of money by selling storage and thoughts-off safety for normies?
And catch up to what Google offered like then years ago already with ChromeOS.
Yeah I've always thought it was weird, especially after they cancelled the Time Capsule, leaving no official Apple product to back up your Mac. I figured it was because the max iCloud plan was 2 TB and Apple sold Macs bigger than that, but then they increased the iCloud plans and still didn't do it...
