GGP was talking about iOS devices specifically, and I showed how they are worse for privacy than their alternatives due to long-standing and long-complained-about practices by Apple. Do you disagree? You have not given any reason why anybody should.
As far as ad prices, you are citing a report from 2019. Since then, Safari ITP has been thoroughly compromised to the point where it leaks more information when it's on than when it's off. Meanwhile, Chrome supports uBlock Origin, just like Firefox (and unlike Safari).
- millstone 6y agoThe report is from December 2019, it has relevance in July 2020. Android Chrome does not support uBlock Origin. Mobile Safari prevents more tracking than Chrome, which is reflected in the lower ad prices. "Safari ITP is compromised" is a lie.
- lern_too_spel 6y ago> "Safari ITP is compromised" is a lie. Saying that statement is a lie is itself a lie. https://www.imore.com/google-engineer-says-apples-intelligent-tracking-prevention-issue-has-not-been-fixed https://www.imore.com/google-engineer-says-apples-intelligen... The way that Apple addressed the ITP bugs is in fact a wonderful example of privacy lip service. > Android Chrome does not support uBlock Origin. Android allows you to run actual Firefox, which does support uBlock Origin. As a bonus, it doesn't even require you to tell anybody that you have installed Firefox. That is what actual privacy looks like.
