> while declining to share their decision with the reporter, as is completely normal for Apple

This is completely normal for Apple, but that doesn’t make it OK for them to treat security fixes like product launches where they can choose an arbitrary timeline and keep the reporter hanging forever.

Sure but it also doesn’t justify innuendo about Apple not caring about privacy.

You know as well as I do that this stuff is complicated.

Yeah, it probably is; maybe it requires substantial changes in the kernel or something. The issue is that Apple never communicates this, they just sit on bugs until they fix them. This is a really poor experience for people reporting issues.
