   Apple murdered privacy.   
      
   I've seen that support article and it doesn't answer the question.   
       
      
   It's ironic that Apple is (yet again) the worst of all in terms of privacy.   
   Anyway, Apple lies about privacy. But we're stuck with what it is.   
      
   Even as there is no company worse than Apple for privacy, I'm stuck with   
   having to use the only 2FV in my life, just to install apps on my iPads.   
      
   Even though Apple murdered privacy, we're stuck with figuring out options.   
       
      
   You can't use a "trusted device" with a new AppleID as no other device has   
   that AppleID (for privacy - that's why). Apple murdered privacy after all.   
      
   You have to use a phone or something else.   
   And you don't want to use a phone as that's the worst (for privacy).   
      
   So what else can be used to avoid Apple from murdering your privacy?
