Apple would do good to provide an optional two-step verification login such as Google does:

Besides, to it would be great if apart from storing our iphones’ data
on their servers, Apple offers offline backup tools to keep a copy of
our contacts, calendars, notes, etc directly saved on a user’s computer
and what’s more important, directly accessible to the user at any time.

Yes that’s that true, my comment was more of a criticism towards apple who nearly always deny an wrong-doing.

Actually, n11, both could be true. If you think about it for, perhaps, two seconds.

This has been going on for far too long.

That’s odd, I thought Apple said that its “internal procedures” weren’t followed properly, which would lead me to believe that their current guidelines when followed are sufficient. I assume this is not the case with toughening the verification?
Will apple not admit anything?
I’m also looking at you to Amazon.
