I remember getting flamed so hard for saying that Google/android was incredibly invasive tech. I was laughed at, called an apple fanboy and accused of schilling.
Sadly, it looks like I’m the one laughing now.
Lol and Apple doesnt do any of that?
Show me evidence they do.
No proof.
But even the US is scared of encrypted exfiltrated data because their adversaries could crack the encryption later on.
Same here.
They have the data and for now decided to not yet do do anything too bad with it.
But Google also had the motto "Don't be evil" at one point.
So…. No proof.
Look up a YT channel called Tech-Bore
They haven't done anything with that data yet*
While clearly the lesser evil in this moment, I wouldn't count on that lasting forever.
