I live in the United States of America, where the government is bought and paid for by companies who dislike privacy for their users.

In the meantime, it may not be Apple's "job," but it's part of their value proposition, and the grumbling from software vendors indicates it's reasonably effective.

You live in the United States of America, which has had Google, Microsoft and Apple under it's thumb since Snowden's leaks. If you want to insinuate that Apple protects you against state-level actors, you should disprove that or at least refute their own transparency page[0].

If not the software vendors, who are you trusting to keep your best interests at-heart here?
