Google has 280b (2022) in revenue mostly (entirely?) from ads. Apple's is 394b (2022), so you're talking about 1%... growing to, what? 1.1%? Everyone complain

Google has 280b (2022) in revenue mostly (entirely?) from ads. Apple's is 394b (2022), so you're talking about 1%... growing to, what? 1.1%? Everyone complains about overpriced Apple products and that's specifically because that is where they make their money. And services a bit now, but mostly products. It's so easy to be nihilist about this, there's plenty of things Apple sucks at. They're certainly not perfect on privacy either. But for the love of god don't act like they're "just as bad at privacy" as you are intentionally moving us to a world where literally no large company cares about privacy. *I forgot to mention my (least) favorite category of Google's ads! Banner ads.
