Apple is one of the few tech companies that puts user privacy first, and any claims otherwise are deeply misguided. They pioneered things like iCloud Private Relay and privacy protecting cloud backups for devices.

Ironically the gaps you point to are things they have had to do to appease the European Union.

They didn't pioneered it, they just brought it to the masses. Tor was here before the Private Relay, and most open source backup applications offer E2EE out-of-the-box.
