97. Bingo! I am.

Read the fucking instructions. It's not that hard. If you're illiterate, have someone read it to you. And your analogies to house locks and stuff are totally not apropos to this situation. You simply cannot trust your data security to other computers controlled by others. I learned this on TRS-80's running DOS in the 1980s as a child. It's stupid to think otherwise. And no, I'm not victim blaming. It sucks these celebrities, and millions of others, not celebrities, don't take their data security seriously. It's a very serious problem, for all of us.

And Apple pretty much says that very same thing in their EULAs and ToS. I guess you just trust profit-driven corporations more than me. I'm pretty cynical about it. With those companies, you're not their customer, you're their product, and I don't know why more people don't get this.

I take my digital security seriously, do simple things like turn of location tracking on my phone, administer my own network at home with a custom firmware on my router, have my modem not administering NAT, etc. I used to run a hardware firewall as well.

I hope you have a nice evening. We're not going to agree about this.
