Either he's hiding the fact that they'll provide what data they have (timings, ip addresses, contact metadata) when the warrant comes, he doesn't think it's valuable to publicize the ways they cooperate with the government legally, or he is actually thinks Apple will break the law when the lawful requests come in.
Second, he doesn't address exactly how everyone lost their data in the nude celebrity thing. A straigtforward answer would address the elephant in the room, and give us facts to think about, what we need to look out for, and how their recent moves address the vulnerabilities. Right now all we have is informed guess work and inferences from (admittedly great) detectives like https://twitter.com/nikcub Still different than hearing it from people with the facts.
He seems to be drawing a distinction between providing some information to the government in response to a request, vs. providing "access to our servers."
I dont understand:
