If they're the best the market has to offer, we ought to start demanding better competitors. Apple is a cardholding PRISM member with proven backdoors in their OS. They're also a noted pushover and were fine instating total iCloud surveillance when China asked nicely.

It's a victory if you want it, but utterly pyrric when both of the options on the "market" are useless for privacy.

It could be solved with a political concession, but it could also be solved by developing your OS in public so you're accountable for any "accidental" security mistakes.
