The entire article is moot, because the story of qwerty keyboards being layed out that way is a myth. Nothing more. People can type in an astonishing speed on normal layouts.

Does anyone still believe Apple has a real interest in privacy?

Well I guess we have to invoke a strong copyright, that protects every piece of code, so that no one can steal any of it in any way. And then you'll have your death of open source. It's code, there shouldn't be any copyright to it.

Apple's success lies in forcing customers to stay and do as they're told. Come hell or high water.

We'll because Apple is a way of life. A religion. Religions aren't bad, are they?

Apple is way too powerful. Not that Facebook is any better, but Facebook is not the gatekeeper for millions of peoples lives. When Apple boots you as a customer, you most likely will lose everything about your digital life.

If you lose your Facebook account, it's annoying but recoverable.

Apple has control over your phone, your passwords, your photos, your music, your emails, your credit cards/payment methods. And you can backup nothing of it in a usable way. Without a working Apple account any iPhone is as good as a brick.

Because people are still living in the 90s and even the best developers just love to gobble up Apple's propaganda bullshit.
