How do you know? Do you believe everything Apple tells you? Do you even know what type of encryption they are supposedly using in the cloud? What about when you login to your iCloud account, do you not think they can access your data if they wanted to?

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

Given Apple's own iCloud security detail [1] stating explicitly:

  > For certain sensitive information, Apple uses end-to-end encryption. This means that only you can access your information, and only on devices where you’re signed into iCloud. No one else, not even Apple, can access end-to-end encrypted information.

  > In some cases, your iCloud data may be stored using third-party partners’ servers—such as Amazon Web Services or Google Cloud Platform—but these partners don’t have the keys to decrypt your data stored on their servers. 
I'd like to see your evidence to these claims, if there are none then please retract them, HN isn't reddit.
