The problem is Apple won’t be able to just rely on that forever. Eventually when Macbook Airs are starting at $2999 and people can’t afford their hardware, they’ll start cutting into user data more if they haven’t reached that point yet. Just because a business model supports a virtue doesn’t mean that company will always abide by their previous moral commitments. Google once said “Don’t be evil”
Yes, the THREE-trillion dollar, 50-year-old company that figuratively just prints money is going to become so desperate that they will abandon their extremely profitable business model to become… an ad agency?
The absolutely irrelevant reference to a vague PR line in Googles old corporate code of conduct was a nice touch, though
Yes, that’s what’s going to happen, but maybe not for an ads platform. Your rights are on the chopping block, but don’t worry though, because by that point you’ll be convinced that giving up your privacy and any individual thought is entirely within your self interest. Ideas like “Big company, much value, can’t possibly want more money” is pretty much halfway down the line.
Great work doing their work to convince yourself, for them.
