It’s obviously not true that nobody uses Safari on Apple’s laptops and desktops.
Apple’s Mac sales have doubled since 2008 and is in the top 5 when it comes to PC shipments: http://www.asymco.com/2016/11/02/wherefore-art-thou-macintosh/ http://www.asymco.com/2016/11/02/wherefore-art-thou-macintos...
Shipping ~30 million Macs a year certainly isn't almost nobody.

- alwillis 9y agoWeb advertising is such a cutthroat and low margin business that having 2–3% of all browser users become untrackable is a big deal. Safari on iOS obviously has significantly higher market share on mobile and the intelligent tracker blocking is part of iOS 11 beta.
- piyush_soni 9y agoYes, it will be a big deal when it comes to mobile.
