Google has the business model that if it goes away they're screwed, Apple has the business model that oh well since everyone else is doing it we might as well get a few extra bucks as well, cause we like money, but make sure it doesn't mess with our real business.

their models are not the same.

They both have many different businesses under the hood, and they both heavily rely on advertising.

Both collect, sell, and use their users' data.

They even have special deals where Apple sells it's users to Google.

Not sure what point you're trying to make.
