So does Apple, the difference being they grabbed it all to themselves. This is why they have "no tracking" options, to seal competition off while selling themselves as the privacy champions and also selling their in house ad solution. That and the fact that they worked with the government behind users back, and having a shoddy work to secure their OS.
