    You should know by now that it's a dig at the Apple culture.

    At the risk of explaining too much about Apple's strategy for people to comprehend in one bite, Apple's fundamental strategy with iOS is they
    designed it as a dumb terminal which *requires* constantly (every single
    day!) logging into the Cupertino matrix in order for iOS to do anything
    useful.

    This is important.

    Every moment of every day, for their entire lives, Apple users are logging
    into Apple's servers, just to get the most basic of functionality on iOS.

    Hell... these Apple owners log into the Apple Cupertino servers pretty much
    on every breath they take - they're *that* connected to Apple's matrix.

    Since Apple has billions of people constantly logging into its servers,
    Apple is fantastically *desperate* to have people put on silly gimmicks to "protect" their system from their wife, kids, and friends of the family.

    Why do you think Apple makes a huge (bullshit) deal bout BIOMETRICS!!!!!!!! Apple essentially, tells all their customers that they live in the slums.

    Apple teaches every one of their customers that everyone around them is a threat. That their wife is out to get them. Their kids too. And friends.

    Hence Apple owners live in constant fear for their lives, every moment.
    As if they live in the slums.

    As for me, my cars are parked outside and I don't even lock the doors.
    My house is unlocked. My gate open. I live in the Santa Cruz Mountains.

    I don't live in the slums. So I don't fear everyone around me.

    Apple owners fear every single person around them.
    Which is why I joke that Apple owners all live in the projects.

    The slums.
    Otherwise, why are they so afraid of their own wife & kids & friends?

    All Apple owners live in the slums. That's what Apple teaches them.
    --
    In the subterranean caversn of the Apple ecosystem, every single person is
    to be feared as a dire thread - you MUST protect iOS from even your wife!

    Is there any other operating system which requires a login to do basic
    things like populating the device with typical apps that people use.

    Or is it just Apple?

    Because if any other operating system requires that login for the device to
    do basic things like install apps, then that other OS maker thinks its
    owners live in those slums too.

    Or is it just Apple whose owners are told that they all live in the slums?

    Not everyone, but a phone without a passcode can be stolen and if there
    is any private information on it at all, that information is at risk.
