To change the goalposts yeah? I make a flippant comment about one approach to data harvesting being more exhaustive than another and you eventually say “yeah but not degoogled Android”? Nobody was talking about that. As I say, each to their own, I’m sure degoogled Android is great for the comparatively few that use it, but the initial post I replied to just specified Android. Of the two companies - Google and Apple - I know which one I’m more likely to trust with my data.
As well as the degoogled Android goalpost, I know.
It’s all choice at the end of the day, isn’t it. I choose Apple for a variety of reasons, and they’ve championed privacy regularly in recent years. Whether we choose to believe the claims, well that’s up to the consumer isn’t it. One thing’s for sure, Google definitely don’t make the same claims.
yes, mentioning any choice that isn’t custom (like degoogled or linux phones) for any sort of privacy is misinformation, whether you believe in it or not.
and yes, google is making privacy claims. shit, even meta claims their apps are private, esp whatsapp.
A degoogled Android is therefore the superior product by an elementary process of elimination. The vast majority Android features are not exclusive to the Google portion of the ecosystem, so that is not the qualifier.

You’re going with the company that gave a Nazi a golden statue?
Alrighty then, stay losing and simping for overpriced trash I guess.
hence why i edited it?

i’m still standing firmly on the goalpost that apple isn’t any more private than google.

“The same claims”
do their marketing have to be exactly the same as apple’s for my point to have validity?
No but it seems like being deliberately obtuse is necessary for your point to have validity.
is that why you are being this annoying?
Google harvesting data = bad
Apple harvesting data = bad
Degoogled not harvesting = good

This comment was reported but I didn’t remove it because I think it’s quite mild, but this line is unnecessary:
Please refrain from personal attacks.
I’m good thanks.
Okay mate 😂
Not once have I questioned the viability of a degoogled android device.
This is literally an apple enthusiast community. I’m not sure what you’re expecting, or are you just here to troll with the last statement?
