There's an aluminum curtain that drops on every Apple investor call, TV interview, event, briefing — everything. Every single time…. Except one…

Apple wants to protect privacy — Facebook wants to 'inflict pain'
4
Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg, literally wants to inflict pain on Apple, on Tim Cook. To make them hurt. To lobby the government against them, to claim anti-trust, to do everything they can to paint Apple dirty. Why?
