    The last time I read the Apple privacy policy it sounded like they pretty much collect everything and let themselves share this data with whoever they feel like.

    There was a lot of calming language, but it didn’t sound convincing to me.

    That being said, if you like the Apple ecosystem and UX, it’s a solid option.

    I personally believe their statements about privacy are nothing more than PR.

      The only reason they dont share it with other apps, is because from a capitalist standing point, why the hell would you share information you want to sell?

      Them being the only one having access to a billion peoples location data is why they are the richest company.

      They very much do dell, and they very much share that data with the government they also pay a shitton of money in donations for ball rooms.

        FWIW, from my last reading of their privacy policy, they openly stated that they do share PII with other companies who they consider to be their partners.

        They claim that they don’t share PII with third parties “for their marketing purposes”.

        That being said, you’re at the mercy of their definition of “partner” and interpretation of “for [the third party’s] marketing purposes”.

        I should honestly just re-read their privacy policy (and the same for Google and Meta).
