I would have thought that the context of the discussion I was having would have made it obvious I was speaking about a problem for Apple and its investors and not a personal problem for Annie.

Apparently not.

Apple is leading on privacy but unless the majority follow, its competitors are going to take advantage of the fact that they are unable to offer some fairly compelling services. That is the problem for Apple and its investors. Many may think it is a trade-off worth making. As an investor, I simply have to take Apple's reduced ability to offer certain services into account when I am making investment decisions.

Thanks Blue, it's nice to have a name for one of my fellow minority persons.

You also happen to be one of my favorite Christmas trees :-)
