Without android they would have much less data on a lot of people; the location data gathered via android allows them to target localized adds, as they know where you are and where you are going to.

More importantly, thanks to the rights and liberties in our country, I do not feel the need to hide my location from law enforcement. And now, the iOS devices I have are going to have the capability to scan my photos via neural hashing and cross-reference that with whatever TPTB see fit. Etc.
