This is a perfect example why no one can take you seriously.  No one
would settle for half a billion dollars if they were right.  Use
some common sense rather than defending Apple to the death.  Even
nospam wouldn't go this far.

 Yeah, I guess it’s better to let people think you’re hiding something and
guilty than for a court to find you hiding something and be guilty.
 

It's better with the vast majority of people to get out of the news cycle.
A tiny minority will "think you're hiding something".
The rest won't just not care: they won't even be aware.
