> What data does Google collect that Apple doesn't collect?

I don't know what Google collects, but the simple answer to this is "virtually everything". Apple collects very little data from their users and does everything they possibly can on-device (and the stuff that requires the cloud is either encrypted or heavily anonymized). Nearly all data that Google collects, Apple doesn't.

On the other hand, Android services everyone, whereas Apple tells the developing world to fuck off. Apple's privacy is only for the social elite who can afford their expensive toys, and they're not interested in providing service on a global scale.

Let's not get too hippy-feelgood about Apple's intentions regarding its users here.

Well hold on dude, are you arguing that it's not Apple's right to charge money for quality / service?
