Apple might be good for privacy (against 3rd parties - Apple still has your info), but they're terrible for freedom.
If you value your freedom and liberty, this is hypocritical. Apple benefits from their revenue stream not being dependent on advertising, but they're just as unjust in locking down their devices and preventing competition and open computing.
At the end of the day, I think lack of freedom is worse than eroded privacy. They're both bad, but freedom is essential.
