I paid a lot for cable TV and they still showed me ads despite being the customer. I also pay a lot for my internet connection as a customer, but guess what my ISP's privacy policy allows them to do? Share my data.

Like any other profit driven company, Apple is incentivized to generate revenue from their customers' data and to advertise to them.

Apple is equally incentivised not to generate revenue in this way since they would lose hardware sales.
