    Their service line was growing much faster than hardware, it is a big part of their business. So their business model does depend on data collection.

        I am just curious, have you ever read Apple’s privacy policy?

        What makes you think they don’t log your searches?

            So have you or have you not read the Apple privacy policy?

            Where did I say Apple has a search engine? I said Apple tracks and logs your searches.

                Google, Apple, Meta it’s all the same to me. I don’t do fandom for oligarch conglomerates. I am not from North America.

                In reality, I think you’re being deliberately obtuse because you want to defend Google’s business practices for some reason. You’re conflating the way Google collects sensitive user information for the purpose of advertising in every single one of its products, including from non-Google apps and webpages with some technicality around verbiage in a privacy policy, which you have not even cited yourself.

                All right, all right! It’s all a big conspiracy to protect Alphabet and discredit poor little Tim Apple.

                You got me partner. It’s all technicality in their privacy policy!

            Let me install some software on your devices and I’ll show you how to track searches without operating a search engine.
