Apple is a hypocrite. Have been saying this for years now. A deeply corrupted, arrogant and empathyless organization.

I was pointing out this very possibility when their 'privacy' controls started kicking in and I would get heavily downvoted for it. Their privacy measures are not privacy measures at all, they are simply a userbase lockout.
Corruption would be if they used company money for something that doesn’t create value for the owners, or bribed government officials. Certainly there is more than zero corruption, but it doesn’t seem like a characteristic feature.

Arrogance would be if they rested on their laurels and stopped innovating.

Empathy is a human quality, and not something organizations can have.

Hypocrisy may or may not apply, but at least they aren’t selling my data to the highest bidder. I trust them with my data and they keep it to themselves. I’m OK with that.

Corporation exists at the sole benefit of the shareholders unless they are a B corp.
