So, Google is clearly paying lots of money directly to maintain their lead in the search engine market.
Bad look for Apple as well. They say they take privacy seriously, but are selling their user’s data to Google, one of the last companies you would want getting your information if you were concerned about privacy.

Only idiots think Apple is privacy friendly lol.
I don’t link to news sites, but if you look up Apple Let Contractors Listen To Private Voice Recordings you’ll see that in 2019 they were sending voice clips to contractors.
Apple has everyone fooled. They act like they are so privacy focused because they do processing locally on your device instead of in the cloud, which means nothing. Google also has been moving a vast majority of things to local processing on their Pixel devices for years now. Is Google now privacy focused?
Aren’t almost all (at least photo editing ones) new Pixel 8 & Pixel 8 Pro features in the cloud? What things do you mean when you say Google is moving to local processing?
No, you’re right. That’s not a good excuse but being overly dramatic over it doesn’t really do anything productive either. At the end of the day it’s just a default option that can easily be changed. Not really a conspiracy by Google and Apple to steal your personal data.
The issue with Google is the scale of the data they can collect and their ability to use that data. Between Chrome, Search, Android, Waymo, Google Fi, etc they have a lot of ways to gather and use data on users.

Apple are privacy-focused insofar as they will privately sell your data, sneakily.
They had a big billboard in LA that said “Apple knows privacy” or some shit.
I guarantee all of them ate that up without a second thought.

Yeah, correcting those types of typos on mobile is a pain in the ass, haha.
IOS is closed source and doesn’t allow side loading, it shouldn’t be considered in privacy discussions
Why not? Isn’t apple able to push whatever they want to user’s phones without their permission, like they were paid to do with the U2 album?
I mean that it can’t be considered secure or privacy focused
My guy, there are plenty worse companies than Google to have your data. Let’s not get too hyperbolic.
It could always be worse. But that’s a bad excuse.

And Google VPN.
Google’s entire recent business direction seems to be “protect your data from everyone else so our copy of your data is worth more”.
Also add Google Maps and Gmail to the list.
Nah, there’s only one Apple user, she just posts a lot online under pseudonyms and buys a continuous stream of products.
Oh no my gmail address already sold. My mailbox, my searches :'(
