It’s less that Apple cares about privacy, and more that it’s easier for them to control within a walled garden. If you control all of the levers, the rest naturally falls into place. That doesn’t mean it’s better; it’s just different.
Apple is secure in the same way a prison is secure. It is great at stopping attackers from entering but also great at stopping you from getting out if you don't do it the approved way.
It’s even more than that. They don’t want the liability of responsibility handling/securing your data in the event their systems are breached.
I used to work for a company that did a lot of business with Apple and have friends who have worked at Apple proper, they’re paranoid about mishandling sensitive data.
