Better Apple make money off data than it being collected by Facebook and sent to the FBI.

At least Apple has a record of keeping their users safe from government.

What makes you think Apple isn't doing the same? They were involved in PRISM as well. Honestly, I really doubt Apple could continue to do business without being at least somewhat porous to law enforcement and government snooping (maybe better than others but definitely not stiff-arming them).

Having the data exist on somebody's servers in an unencrypted state at all is enough to make me uneasy.
