That may be true. But Apple themselves started us down the path of zero trust. This is what I was promised - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BZmeZyDGkQ0

This isn't what Apple is doing. If we're to take Apple's words that the govt agencies aren't 100% trustable just because they have a trustable setup today, why should we trust Apple just because they seem to be the good guys today?

Whether this is what they are doing or not, is a very good argument.

For example, not end to end encrypting iCloud backups is a major problem, especially if it is at the FBI’s request.

However, this has nothing to do with the certificate server outage.

Trust is not binary, and no matter what harmful things Apple does, nothing they do justifies intellectual dishonesty and lies from their critics.

If we want to critique them, let’s critique them for the things they are actually doing, and compare them to real alternatives or technical solutions.
