At what point will Security professionals start turning down roles that involve “securing” MS Products? I’m already at this point.

Securing Microsoft products is busy work while waiting to have it undercut by the next wave of MS’s insane tech debt and greed. And now backdoors!

As opposed to iOS, which does iCloud backups that are not E2E encrypted by default, so that law enforcement can request your chats (except Signal because they opt out), browser history, etc.?

You can enable ADP for E2E encrypted backups, but it's probable not going to help you much, because the people you are communicating with likely didn't.

This is not to defend Microsoft, more to say that all these companies were part of PRISM.
