What are you basing this information on (besides a pinky swear of a corporation which happily forgets their values when it comes to repairability and labor force) ?

Probably gave it away?

Apple obviously doesn't have any positive values about labour force and repairability, but both of those have about 0% to do with privacy, so they aren't relevant in this case I'd think.

I get that Apple seems more trust worthy in this setting but if one trusts others depends on everything they do. It would be better if they combined forces to create a separate entity. Safe browsing currently gives both companies the ability to block websites. They could do this when they feel like it but also when ordered to.

It’s just the classic “Apple’s bad, therefore they are absolutely doing anything nefarious I could come up with”.

You can look into SEC 10K filings for both firms.

And those filings say that Apple is rapidly changing itself into online service firm where most services heavily rely on users data.

I am sure you've also made a keen observation that those services revenues heavily come from subscriptions, not from user data.

An online services firm that is 100% different in how it works compared to Google/Facebook's models. All of it's services are subscription based and tailored for people who bought their devices.
