I respect people’s right to use apple products, but please stop asserting “privacy”, big corps doesn’t give a shit.

    Apple: Has incentives to patch and update older phones (recurring revenues from AppStore and iCloud), and doesn’t really sell any ads themselves.

    Don’t fall for Apple PR, they sell you out like everyone else does: https://ads.apple.com/

      Of course they do.

      But they have recurring revenue streams other than just ads, unlike the Android vendors. Meaning - they probably won’t fuck me over as hard as Google.

      Edit: also, note that the ads they sell via your link are on their own platform, i.e. within their own ecosystem. The revenue here is most likely peanuts compared to the AppStore commissions.
