The let's blame our users game...

It seems that Apple is happy to blame its users every time something wrong happens with any of its products, no matter what issue is found.

Even though some of the blame can be placed on Apple's own security implantation, it's rather odd and insensitive to place the blame on users while the investigation is still ongoing. Even worse when it seems that such blaming games are the modus operandi of a company that prides itself of making the word's mos advanced desktop OS.

Ever since the antenna gate, Apple seems rather to blame their users as people that can seem to be able to use their rather user friendly products than to accept mistakes. That really bugs me, I don't mind companies making mistakes from time to time if they admit them and correct them. But, blaming users is something that is not ethical to say the least.

In this case, I want to know what was the part that software had to play and what are they going to do to fix it so that something like the celebrity photo hacks won't happen ever again in the same way. And while some of the responsibility might fall on the users side, the remainder will fall on Apple's side.

It's on Apple's best interest to let the investigation run its course, and then be transparent about fully disclosing the findings and what they are going to do fix the problems on their side of the matter.

If this doesn't happen, what remains of my faith and trust on Apple will completely disappear.
