While I have my concerns, I must say it makes me feel better that Apple's business model is not Collecting and selling customer data, like Google and others. Apple stated to have no interest in customer's data beyond adoption numbers and such (can't find the article atm). With this in mind I consider Apple to be the lesser of all 'evils' out there. I'm glad USB sync is coming back, they wouldn't have done that if they needed our data for profit (I think).
Whilst I've no proof that AAPL are guilty of course, after experience with a couple of large institutions, (US), I've lost faith in them. I've seen that they have a public and a private face and despite having regular and mandatory ethics and anti corruption training etc, let's just say that I still have reservations.
That said, I'm sure most companies that aren't in the businees of selling or manipulating customer data aren't always above using the data that others provide.
I used OSX Server on ML and it was Ok. I prefer the simplicity of local USB sync. Does your Mac still sleep on schedule, (not manually), now that you have Server installed?
