Again, just because you have some issues does not mean they are not more privacy focused than companies like Google. Last I checked, Google reads your emails to use in ads which they also sell. Apple does neither. I’m not going to go down the list tit for tat, it’s well established.

Also, privacy and capitalism are not mutually exclusive…? You can get support for privacy across many different backgrounds.

I don't trust them. Point blank. I don't trust that they do or don't do what they claim. They have been caught in bald faced lies numerous times before.

I'm not saying Google is better, I'm just calling bullshit on their claim of privacy. I don't believe for a second that they aren't monetizing your data and just calling it some newspeak term they made up to weasel out of admitting it.

Why do you feel the need to defend them?
