Selling your user information/attention for ad revenue is quite a scummy business model when it comes down to it. I quite enjoy the fact that Apple could pull the plug on Google, FB etc. any time it wanted to by announcing steps to make their devices “ad free.” Apple makes its money selling hardware and software and content, they have no need for ads. They basically have a gun to the head of the internet companies.

It's all a con, to make more apple profits. Its nothing to do with protecting your data, its about storing it with Apple not Facebook.
