i'm currently sitting on a 13 day lockout from my apple ID due to password issues after breaking my phone and forgetting password. Had no idea this was even a thing, and theres nothing i can do to shorten it. Not a major inconvenience, but I have zero access to any of my apple products such as music, books and video, of which I have a considerable amount. I've considered dumping apple products in the past and this has me looking at other options, and also how to transfer those apple products to another OS. The annoyance of doing that is I have to be much more involved in the security aspect of a non apple device so I have a major learning curve if I choose to follow through. However incidents like this, and the paypal thing have me looking more deeply into the platforms I'm attached to.
