This story is incredibly well reported. The lobbying force Google, Facebook and the rest of the surveillance capitalism industry can bring to bear against privacy legislation is incredible. If Apple wants to make a real dent in the universe for privacy, they need to be the opposing force in the same arena. Privacy at a product level is great, but creating a legislative equivalent to GDPR (and their other privacy laws) in the US would be infinitely better.
Loved this line:
>Soltani wryly pointed out that Mactaggart had offered Silicon Valley a take-it-or-leave-it privacy policy — the same kind that Silicon Valley usually offered everyone else.
