A button in Apple Pay that says "Add an Apple Card" is hardly even an upsell.
The author is an iOS developer for Microsoft and this piece is basically "APPLE BE EVVIIIIIIL!!!!!!!" shrieking. Their employer's operating system is incredibly invasive with its "telematics", and oh by the way, bundles a shitload of MS and third party junk nobody wants, constantly pesters you to use their browser, etc.
Microsoft is annoyed that installing MS Teams, Skype, etc on an iPhone doesn't give them heaps of information about you. This piece is part of their war to get people onto Android, which is literally purpose-built to collect data on its users.
