While I agree, just because they don't need to doesn't mean they won't.
Google didn't need to invent gmail and get everyone sucked in to a free product, and then start reading emails to advertise, but it did.
I know it's not exactly apples-to-apples (no pun intended) but I wouldn't put all my faith in a company not doing something egregious for profit because they don't _need_ to
- hylaride 7y agoWith Apple I trust, but verify. Apple actually has in it's EULA terms that it won't share the data. I know they can easily change it, but that's a good sign. With Apple's icloud services, outside of a small free tier, you actually pay them money. With Google, the only real revenue they have is from ads.
