Apple and Your data

Apple may have launched with the Iphone 5 the greatest and highes-tech smartphone ever, there are also lots of problems with it. Their operating system is notoriously closed so that once you lose some of Your data (with Capital "Y"), there is practically no way of getting it back.
Of course there are backups via iTunes and now also backups in iCloud whenever you're in reach of Wi-Fi access. But in many cases backups are old and data is lost everyday by many people. Most of them figure out it can't be retrieved, curse and forget about it, and go on.
In addition to being proprietary, iOS also encrypts Your data, as if you shouldn't be allowed to read it back. Of course it's marketed as a privacy feature, but it's pretty annoying when you want to get some of Your lost data back and have to do a jailbreak or try to find the encryption keys. At least, the encryption of user data should be an option to the user.
Apple, I'd wish you'd announce that next time at an event. It would make these marvelous, state-of-the-art iDevices even better!
