As someone who cherishes privacy (can’t use Android with continuous Google tracking) and abhors walled gardens (Apple), I think the market is ripe for a new player.
Is it the natural course of things that every public company will eventually turn the screws on its customers to keep showing quarterly growth? If so, it is but natural to expect that they will be replaced by better competitors.
- aldarisbm 6y agoThe market is ripe for a new player. You're not the norm, youre the exception.
- agakshat 6y agoI agree that most people don’t care about privacy, but also consider that in the many years it will take for any competitor to emerge (even if they started today), the situation will have improved.
- ars 6y ago> can’t use Android with continuous Google tracking Google sure seems to offer a lot of privacy options to disable tracking. What is missing that you want?
- agakshat 6y agoYeah, but it ends up hurting usability to a large extent. Also, I’m at a point where it’s tough to take Google at it’s word about location history etc. With Apple I’m more comfortable letting them have my data, just because they have a better record with privacy, at least.
