Trouble is, based on what I see on a daily basis in the Apple Discussion Forums, a significant number of users routinely forget their security questions and Apple ID passwords. Then they fly into a rage when told how to go about reestablishing control. They also don't give a rat’s hind end about security.

Yes, I have a friend who cannot remember her security questions.   When she initially set up her IDs she saw them as stupid and a nuisance and just rushed through them.  Now, if she ever needs them she'll be in trouble.

I have another friend who sets up long, complicated non-intuitive passwords.  He usually writes them down on a piece of scratch paper -- which he then loses...

Sigh...

It's her phone. She can do anything she wants with it. How can this be evidence tampering when the 5th amendment protects you? I don't condone illegal things but she has every right to protect her personal things. When a criminal wipes their fingerprints from a crime scene is that tampering with evidence?

I'm sure this will be used by government officials to demand that Apple disable this privacy and security feature.

I kicked the tires on Aperture and LR (beta) when it was first released and settled on Aperture for it's superior interface and Apple ecosystem integration which were both important to me and never looked back. Aperture works like I do and made a loathsome task (organizing) fun and providing all the editing I needed for 99% of my photos. When Apple pulled the plug, I grudgingly turned to LR which is horribly slow, bloated and non-intuitive although it gets the job done (but the raw conversions still seem to be lacking compared to Aperture). I transitioned because photos was nothing like Aperture and was lacking in it's feature set. In addition, I was scared that Aperture would not keep working with OS updates. Several years later, I dread the task of importing and post-processing and I miss Aperture every day. Apple really dropped the ball on this one. They are flush with cash and never should abandon something like this in my opinion.
