I respect people's right to use apple products, but please stop asserting "privacy", big corps doesn't give a shit.

I think the hate is because they tout privacy and then fail in some areas, but a large part of the fan base is evangelical about apple even with the let downs. While Google gets forgiven because it is like "hell yeah we will sell your data."

I mean, isn’t it a good thing that the company that touts privacy publicly apologizes and reverses course when they screw up, even if they sometimes don’t to the degree we would like?

I don’t see why Google should ever be forgiven
for violating our privacy just because they’re blatant about doing it. That’s dumb.

Everyone’s always gonna have their own team. Apple doomers have existed since the late 80’s and are just as insufferable imo.

Evangelicals in either camp are inevitable, and not worth vilifying/deifying the entire platform over. It shouldn’t even matter, we should be demanding more out of all of them.

I realize that I’m just venting now, apologies lol.
