Puts Apple's marketing in a new light, doesn't it?

Subtly left out that 36% cut they get from making a data collection company the first thing you see in thier app, huh?

- hn_version_0023 3y agoYou know, I'm beginning to think this whole "Internet" thing was a bad idea
- WesolyKubeczek 3y agoHumanity is a bad idea, look how many good for nothing humans have got produced and prospered so far…
- acheron 3y agoIn the beginning, the universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.
- WesolyKubeczek 3y agoExactly that reference.
- bcrosby95 3y agoThe internet is fine. Normalizing the pursuit of profit above all else is the problem. Companies have done way worse than this in the past 200 years.
- glitchc 3y agoNah, the internet will survive these goons.
- wildzzz 3y agoThey just have Google collect the data and buy it back from them. They get to have their data privacy cake and eat it too.
- astrange 3y agoGoogle doesn't sell data.
- add-sub-mul-div 3y agoYeah this number may not have been known before now, but it's been clear for a while to anyone who wants to see it that Apple profits from your data like all the other giants, they just have a good way to launder it.
- WesolyKubeczek 3y agoWell, but they don’t get the data from the data collection company, only the very anonymized money. Can’t blame the tool, or what they say…

- astrange 3y agoYou don't get search results from Safari/Spotlight/etc the first time you use it. You have to click through a warning that it'll send your request to a server. Also, searching for something isn't necessarily "your personal information" except for when you type in stuff about yourself.
- nathanaldensr 3y agoLOL. Apple are just as guilty as every other player of being a gross globalist corporation.
