I’m a fan of the whole Apple ecosystem but I have to say that there’s a pattern here. Apple does a decent job of keeping my data safe from others but a terrible job of keeping it intact. From music libraries with song titles that got switched to long integers to this (and I’m sure more that I’m not remembering atm) they need to do a better job here.

Sure security is important but integrity is too.

Funnily, "data security" encompass both protecting it from undesired access (and stealing) but also from loss/corruption.

So they do a terrible job from a data security point of view;)
