So you are suggesting that the purpose of the Bloomberg piece is to actually get access to Apple's data centers? Seems a bit conspiracy minded to me. If that was the end goal, surely there would be easier ways than having your "agent" be quoted in an article regarding the root problem and then hoping that his company is hired to provide inspection services.

I suppose his broad point is: we should be wary of third party inspectors.

So what if they do look in Apple's datacenter?

Are we supposed to feel sorry for or worried about the fate of one of the world's richest companies?

his point was about apple customer security, so your question doesn't hold.

He was arguing that this was a kind of Trojan horse for a third party to gain access.

It sounds like you are saying that richness itself is a justification for mistreatment.

Is that really your position?
