Uh duh? Companies use email and other free services to sell ads. Great point if I and every twelve year old on the planet didn't know this already. Don't start off with patronizing comments.
Kudos to Apple? Uh no. If they pulled a Yahoo and didn't tell anyone they were just going to hand over your emails, pics, SMS, contacts, files, they'd be crucified like Yahoo was for getting people thrown into prison.
Your icloud CRYPTOkey now resides with a Guizhou state run company. That a gigantic difference than when even your data might of been on a China server, but that key was in the hands of Cupertino Apple. Now pretty much any state or even local police anywhere in China can demand the Guizhou company to comply with a search warrant, and as the article made clear, police in China can issue the search warrant without asking anyone but themselves to issue one.
But I guess your right, for the 99.9% of the users who aren't human rights lawyers, political activists, journalists, environmental protesters, villagers involved in land disputes, this won't affect a thing, and yeah, your icloud may download faster, cheers!
