For some reason every time somebody criticizes Google, somebody ends up making the argument that Apple is worse and vice-versa.

I don't really get it. Is it because you feel the need to root for your favorite or something? Either way, it's a fallacy that brings nothing to the discussion.

If it were a fallacy, that'd mean it wasn't true.

It's more propaganda than fallacy, but I'd agree it is questionable what it brings to the discussion.
