They've also turned their "cloud service" on after I turned it off multiple times.

And I'm not even avoiding it because of data hostage fears, just because I don't understand it and thus I can't trust it.

At some point when using the device, he accepted the terms of service, so Apple turned on the 5GB of storage for free.

If you don't like this, you can backup your device and move to Android or use a camera.

Seriously? Where does Apple ask if you want to use the cloud storage separately and explicitly?

Does it say we will delete files from your device and move them to our “cloud storage” without involving by your choice or asking for confirmation” anywhere when you setup your iPhone?

Stop with the corporate worship please.

Yes.

You can find the answers in their terms of service, assuming you've read them all.

It is not corporate worship, it is their service that you're agreeing to.

I don't make the rules here.
