#12Since when stocks.apple.com redirects to Wall Street Journal?
They embed news links in the stocks app, so probably an artefact of that.

#14I mean, seems fair to have a huge US company with an history of giving most of their data to their government to not be used.
Apple has a history of giving most of their data to the US government? Did you mean to say “Apple has had to follow federal law when handed subpoena requests”?
The problem is when the data is related with foreign country that's been asked by the US govt.
Can apple not follow it, and will they protect it? Maybe someone with better knowledge on this topic can answer.

#15What is with the URL? stocks.apple.com redirects to wsj.com?

Tesla concern is autopilot cameras shipping images back to Tesla, which is valid; Tesla does ship stills back for training if enabled in the data sharing configuration.
Also Tesla is an absolute security nightmare.

Apple does not have a history of giving most of their data to the US government. I'd go so far as to say that they have given less than .00001% of their data to the US government and they were probably legally obligated to do so. Apple actually has a history of not bending over to the government.
