> This is such an immense breach of trust

Why do you trust it ? Do you think that others (Google, Microsoft, Apple) are not doing/would not do such a thing ? SSL is as secure as its certificates.

Honestly, yes, I don't think Microsoft Google and Apple would do something like this.
Imho, the correct way to evaluate corporate potential corporate trust is on self-interest.

In Microsoft, Google, and Apple's cases, they all have substantial enterprise business that would shit a brick if they were caught doing this.

Ergo, it's not in their best interest to do it.

Safer to rely on a company's desire to make money than any sense of "good".
