I find the technology industry to be a cluster of massive companies, with no real concept of consumer trust. Privacy is a thing of the past

  > Privacy is a thing of the past Apple swings decisively against this trend. Alignment of interests is a powerful social device.

    Because they failed with it, everyone forgets iAd ( ads in the Apple way)

      That might have been an attempt to corrupt their alignment of interests with their customers. It is not an example of a conflict of interest producing, well, conflicted outcomes. I'm skeptical even about the former claim given how locked down the iAd market was, which could be a product of said alignment forcing privacy-friendly parameters.

        Charging advertisers more for less data was doomed to fail, no matter how elegant the implementation. (In other words, I agree with you.)
