The choice is between "use an online service" or "don't use an online service". That's simple enough for anyone to understand.

Apple can try to explain as best it can how user data is protected when they use the online service, and then the user makes a choice to either use the service or not.

In my case, I have don't even have a practical use for the new feature, so it's irrelevant how private the online service is. As it is, though, Apple silently forced me to use an online service that I never wanted.
