If Apple popped up a list on install of search engines to pick from, 99% of people would pick Google anyway. Google is mostly afraid they will buy a startup and have their own or make the same deal with M$. At $15B of pure bottom line, it is an easy choice for Apple. We can only stop this with taxes on digital advertising. The tracking companies have become too good at fingerprinting. Even if everything was completely random and anonymized from the iPhone side, the carriers/ISPs can fingerprint you so much easier and they'll never stop (probably not even with regulation).
