Except there are a massive amount of android devices and windows PCs in the world. Apple controls a small portion of devices in my opinion. I think they are the smallest whale in the ocean these days.

- mrisoli 9y agoThat's what I meant when they were ironically the smallest players in this club by this measure, both Microsoft and Apple are big players with products and services which are not so intrusive as Google/Facebook/Amazon. Just consider what would be if Apple had the same market share on devices/PCs/smartphones that Facebook has on social media, it gets scary.
- frik 9y ago> both Microsoft and Apple are big players with products and services which are not so intrusive as Google/Facebook/Amazon Haha, funny. That was true with Balmer, Microsoft's current CEO transformed the company to consumers worst nightmare, they are worse than the three you labeled as intrusive - with them you can opt-out, and it's just a website or phone OS, but with Win10, Office365/2016 you and your lawyer, your doctor, your bank clerk cannot opt-out and leak your private data.
