Is apple getting a little paranoid with security, it looks like you will be greeted with a new set of rules to update software on your iOS devise, if this is anything to go buy.

Security

Does any else think apple are getting a bit carried away ?

Apple ID is a bit of a security hole. Always hard to get the balance.

In a word no, more and more of my personal details are in companies like Apples hands and the more they try and keep these details safe the better.

Ken you talk about Apple security. You should be seeing Gmail. It is becoming a real pain to access your mail even at home. They are sending you codes on your phone every time you want to access your mail. I am giving up Gmail had enough.

Going back to security on Apple, I think a little is OK but after a while it becomes REALLY tiring and fastidious to enter all these details all the time.
