They are a cash flow generating financial product, like a bond ETF. Apple packages users, resell them to the highest bidder, and interest is collected as return on investment from the payments users make.

Ofc, like a bond, a user pays for a reason: he gets something out of the facility provided by Apple, in kind.

Apple users are not products. That would be Google/chrome/android users
