I can see your point, but wouldn't classify myself as an Apple "hateboy": I've been using iPhones since the 3GS (we have 4 iPhones in the family, 2 iPads and a MacBook). I've just been extremely disappointed by their hypocrisy around privacy (which is a subject I'm very passionate about). They've betrayed my trust when they announced the on-device scanning functionality a few years ago; yes, I know they eventually dropped it after massive pushback from everyone that understands its privacy implications but before doing that they treated us "screeching minority" like dirt, I've never seen such condescending behavior from a legitimate company, especially one that I previously respected. Their massive push in the ad space, combined with other scummy behavior (phone-home on macOS, backdoor access that sidesteps firewalls from 1st party apps, etc.) just paints a bleak future where all the big players (Google, Microsoft and now Apple) treat us like sheep; it's just so frustrating and sad...
