The way they describe the implementation, it basically sounds like they're intentionally trying to screw Facebook and Google. That it also benefits the user is likely just a side-effect, but that's what marketing is for.

That’s how capitalism should work, buddy—companies competing with each other to win users. I absolutely do not see why this is a problem.

I didn't say that it is a problem. I'm just saying that it's a more likely explanation than Apple suddenly being sincerely concerned about everybody's privacy. If it benefits us, I couldn't care less either way.
