    It seems the solution is simple. Don’t use apple products anymore. Windows or linux.

    Unlike apple, there’s ways to make windows private and secure and most distros of linux are mostly private and mostly secure

      Windows is the one where I need an account to install and that spies on me and throws ads in my face, that one?

        Like I said, there’s ways to make it private. And there’s ways to block the ads. There’s ways to use it without a Microsoft account too.

        Apple devices have a second network adapter to bypass your VPN and any adblocking software you have to serve you locally relevant ads.

            search results are always being tampered with. Which search engine did you use? They may have back-peddled on that due to security concerns…or maybe someone in the executive room has a soul and convinced the others not to do it.

            Or maybe they’re already doing it and there aren’t any apple users that know about it, because unlike windows and linux, you have no control and no way of getting control over your apple devices.

              I checked too. Can you use your engines to source the claim?

              It’s very interesting but I would’ve thought somebody would’ve Wiresharked it or seen the suspicious traffic hitting their router (perhaps).

        Although I agree with you it is not a good choice.

        Depending on your threat model it is acceptable. Everyone has different trade offs.
