Their image scanning proposal? The recent UK E2EE backup thing?
For the first, although they eventually backtracked, proposing it alone should be ruinous they are actually a privacy-oriented company.
Although the second situation is forced by a government, it is still a self-inflicted problem where iCloud is the only way you can back up your stuff. Not being able to have encrypted backups is a serious QoL issue.
> I mostly avoid cloud usage, iCloud or otherwise, and when I do use it, I treat all content as public
This is also my attitude toward "the cloud" in general.
