So you hate an American company, that sells hardware/software designed in America; but made elsewhere. A company that does NOT sell your private information, and in point of fact, states as part of their sales pitch; that your private information is not for sale, is not monitored, and is encrypted such that not even Apple can monitor your information.
However, Google, which makes Android, which does monitor your meta information, is given FREE to anyone who makes a cell phone, is monitored, your data is sold, your emails are scanned, your locations, purchases, texts and comments are gathered, sorted, and sold to anyone who wants it ... all all fine.
So, why do you hate Apple? Price point, the phones are comparable. Feature for feature, they are all comparable. Yet, so much Apple hate. Full fledged UNIX, vs less secure operating systems.
Apple is not "Open Source" and is more difficult to trust something that is not open source. Why not let the public see source code of OS? Because Apple has something to hide.
You are correct in that Google does all the tracking. However Android by itself is called AOSP (Android Open Source Project)...which is Open Source. Google's stuff on top of Android is what tracks you (Google Services dependent apps, etc)
Check out Rob Braxman on Odysee or Screwtube. He will educate you on the differences and how Apple is also tracking you.
Open Source means anyone and everyone can hack it. You want a security nightmare? Make your security system Open Source
Apple’s Secure Enclave is a HW/SW system that keeps your fingerprints and FaceID data encrypted on your phone.
There is a reason you have virus’s and malware on Android and not on iOS. There is a reason why each iteration of iPhone advances the internal security. You used to need to connect to the underside of the RAM on the iPhone’s motherboard to hack security. Now it’s been moved into the processor. Why? To protect the user.
Open Source simply means the bad guys do not even need to pretend, in order to get a copy
For most, it’s a tool and your use case isn’t my use case. For my use case; Apple works best. I work R&D and have used MSFT for decades, used Blackberry, Android, BeOS, every version of Windows and DOS. I have been in tech since the mid 70’s.
I chose Mac for home. I use Windows at work, and am quite familiar with both. It’s not a 1 size fits all.
