Your argument is already incorrect on its face, since the "lack of truthfulness" you appear to be speaking of is with respect to Location Services. Since location data is still not sent when Location Services is disabled, and since this is opt-in (not opt-out), and since nothing nefarious was ever shown to have occurred during any of the other episodes of inordinate attention only iOS received, what is your point?
