Apple's is not, so they don't do it nearly to the same extent. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Tangent5280@lemmy.world -1 points 3 years ago (1 child) That doesn't mean we have to conclude apple is the good guy. They can both be shitty corporations. This assignment is not graded on curve. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] acosmichippo@lemmy.world 4 points 3 years ago* That doesn’t mean we have to conclude apple is the good guy. no one said apple is "the good guy". The only thing the top comment said is they prefer apple's stance on privacy compared to google. They can both be shitty corporations. This assignment is not graded on curve. like many things in life if your options are all shitty, then you'll probably opt for the least shitty option.
