2. I deleted the News app.

That action did not afford the opportunity to tell Apple why I deleted the app, but it doesn't show up now. Plus, I never looked for news using the app. I check the Washington Post, DKos, the NY Times, the LA Times and here. I dig deeper on stories that warrant it. I saw the Apple News feed if I scrolled to my phone's first page, but I never searched out the feed. In fact, besides disliking some of their sources, I hated that they were selecting stories for me. Big data, leave me alone!
