What is your beef with Apple about privacy?

• dijit 11y ago
  it's very popular to hate apple for privacy. it seems odd that the same people flock to google for privacy when google's entire business model rests on selling or farming it's users data in various ways. (where-as apples is selling products which you pay for) I've said before that Apple has a business model that is capable of being privacy conscious- so I'm more willing to trust them than google. it just seems like some very well placed propaganda.

    For some reason every time somebody criticizes Google, somebody ends up making the argument that Apple is worse and vice-versa. I don't really get it. Is it because you feel the need to root for your favorite or something? Either way, it's a fallacy that brings nothing to the discussion.

      If it were a fallacy, that'd mean it wasn't true. It's more propaganda than fallacy, but I'd agree it is questionable what it brings to the discussion.
