I don't really see why you're comparing them both, they are both in essential 2 big companies that wants to control their customers in certain ways, sell them products and keep them in their ecosystem.

If Apple could actually take advantage of the potential customer information they have access to in the same way I'm pretty sure they would.

It was OP who compared them by calling out Apple, I just highlighted the absurdity of it. And no, Apple specifically highlights at every event that they have no interest in collecting such customer data and it’s a differentiating factor of their products. That has been a key point of theirs for the past few years.
