That's so Microsoft can make money from non-corporate Windows users, which it makes very little from otherwise.

Apple makes billions off hardware and it's cut in ecosystem sales and has a brand image of privacy which helps those sales.

That's a good point. Although, Apple's HW sales, both Mac and iPhone, could also plateau in the future as people upgrade much less often.
