https://pluralistic.net/2022/11/14/luxury-surveillance/ https://pluralistic.net/2022/11/14/luxury-surveillance/ Given they are building out their own ad network and the huge premium you get for ad attribution, which they can do handily with the level of insights they have. I'm not so surprised. As Cory Doctorow says, what's more lucrative than selling privacy? Selling privacy and selling tracked ads at the same time. It's a similar thing with Apple and sustainability. They haven shown they'd rather shred old but still functional iPhones rather than sending them to a waste heap, where they could be diverted and or mined for parts. They greatly limit repairability with VIN pairing. Yet they spent a substantial amount of time in their latest iPhone presentation selling the notion that Apple is sustainable. Freeing customers of the moral burden that releasing a new phone every year and using finite resources to build them is fundamentally incompatible with sustainability.
