"Privacy: Apple is not only leading the tech industry towards respect for our privacy, it’s pulling that, and oh, just the banking industry as well, that way as well. Not only that, Apple is intensely focussed on the technology that keeps your data private. Home button removal: doesn’t sound like you’ve tried it. I haven’t heard a single comment to the effect of, “I sure wish I still had that button”.  “...no apprexiable benefit”:  You mean aside from the fact that the chin area isnreplaced with screen? That you are securely identified with fewer actions? That it’s actually more secure? I’m not sure how long a list you need before you consider it to be doing something. It doesn’t solve world hunger, id that's what you mean.Complaining about Apple is a big passtime these days, but you should be honest as you do so. "
