Do you have any examples of these? Were they a case of Apple as a whole getting breached (e.g., all hashed iCloud passwords) or individual accounts?

I use Apple services for quite a few things, so whenever I hear about a data breach I evaluate how I use the service and how I can guard against similar breaches that might affect my data.

EDIT: I should point out that this applies to other services that I use as well. This is something everyone who relies on a 3rd party service should keep an eye on as a matter of course.

I don't remember ever hearing of an Apple data breach. Certainly some of the celebrity photo hacks were initially attributed to a general iCloud security problem, but were later found to be typical password problems.
