Of the two major mobile OSes, one is literally owned by an ad company and the other is increasingly succumbing to the dark side of advertising. Why would I trust Apple not to do nefarious things with all the tracking they do ("privacy" my ass) when I could just use a browser with an adblocker and do even better?
- criddell 4y agoYou don’t think Apple can see what you are doing in your browser?
- Aachen 4y agocan != does (I'm not an Apple user and never will be because, with the highest privilege level being reserved for Apple themselves, I don't own the device / can use it for general computation. It goes against my principles so I'm not some apple apologist, it just doesn't make much sense to assume what you said. Google wouldn't surprise me at all....when using Google Chrome/-ium. That's a choice. On Android, your data is fully in your hands, even if you have to fight tooth and nail for getting it your way.)
- criddell 4y agoI wasn’t trying to imply that they would. Just that if you are worried about Apple spying on you, running an ad-blocker doesn’t do much on that front.
