Not really you were essentially immune to a lot of the ad spying and individual databases that google built up on you to sell to 3rd parties that advertised to you. Also apps were given much less freedom to spy on you or access your on device file. Apple just threw all the good sentiment they built up over google down the shitter and try to convince us otherwise with "think of the children".
