No. :( They were supposed to be the good one.

IIRC, Apple already made 30% of its revenue with ads in 2019 or so.

Yeah. People swear Apple is better than Google but almost every big tech company is gathering user data and using it to push ads, including Apple. People just don't want to admit that their "good choice" might be a bad guy.

Tech companies are not our friends.
