I make a distinction between trust and reliability. I can trust a company, even though they might not make the most reliable products.

Bugs/etc are a great way to lose my business, but not a way to lose my trust.

(what you're saying isn't lost on me, I just reserve "trust" for the situation I alluded to -- an important distinction given online privacy concerns/etc)

What you call "trust" I call "trust in the company"; what you call "reliability" I call "trust in the product".
