That scandal was the result of social engineering though, not iCloud being compromised. AFAIK that was a phishing scam, asking victims for their usernames and passwords.

This should illuminate for you that there is nothing special about iCloud privacy or security, in any sense. It has the same real weaknesses as any other service that is UIs for normal people.

Never said there was. No system is foolproof, and a lot of today's security is so good that the users usually are the weakest links in a system. Still, some are more secure than others and there's a difference between a person being tricked to give up their credentlials and a zero day.

I don't believe you should be downvoted for your original comment. Not sure why you are.

Only if you work at Apple.

We have mass conversational and voice cloning technology. It's not a question of if but when.
