Yes, Apple is slightly less bad than Windows. On the other hand, Linux doesn't have any ads (other than the silly ones Ubuntu is trying to push on the command line these days).

Calling a onetime pop-up of a service offering an ad is stretching the description somewhat. Also, it's losing sight of the main argument - ads driven by gathering personal data is what causes concern.

Still worse than Linux. And that's one of the arguments against ads, the other one is that ads take up your attention.
