No, Apple fully understands the situation, and in fact, you don't see many Apple fanboys in the comments defending the firm for once because even they know it's wrong.
Apple just communicates this message because that's what they need to say for their business, that's all.
And they can do so because they also know this uproar will disapear like tears in the rain in a short time if they keep smiling. Their bottom line will not be affected because people don't care.
Remember that now, Bill Gates, who we used to associate ti Satan in the 90s, is now viewed as a hero.
Remember that about 1 american out of 160 is working at Amazon, a company with the reputation of treating their employees terribly. Most people hence knows somebody impacted by this, but don't stop shopping at amazon.
Remember you could say you grab them by the pussy and be elected president.
Remember people gives in mass their data to someone who said "they trust me, the dumb fucks".
Remember that when somebody risked his life to unveil a massive conspiracy to spy on the entire world, the person has been hunted as a traitor.
Remember that one president can lie about WMD, go to war against the vote of the UN, kill thousands of civiliands, spend 600 billions of dollars there while poverty is rising at home, and suffer no consequence whatsoever. Most people have forgotten already. Hell, my girlfriend don't even remember the name of the guy.
But it's you that have to be monitored all the time for CP. And you will be punished harshly if you behave badly, not just according to law, but also according to social contracts, both which powerful people can escape now with money and PR.
