That is the same argument that could have been applied to any one of the controversial tech monopoly issue before

Wouldn’t MS want to secure its laptops by bundling a browser?

Wouldn’t I have equally private and financial documents on a PC? location/gps can’t be that much of a differentiator.

It is monopoly bullying whoever they can. They just happen to not directly affect us, unless we happen to be a developer making lot of money or compete with apple in any way.

Kids take their phones with them everywhere. Location tracking is a huge differentiator between mobile/pc. Front & rear facing cameras are another.

I am an app developer for iOS. It does directly affect me.
