This (well, not this specifically, but other decisions like this) is one of the major reasons I switched to iOS from Android a few years back. I like the openness the Android ecosystem provides, but at least at the moment, Apple seems to provide much better privacy features than does Google. This is just the latest in a long series of decisions and features, such as encrypted messaging (at least for other iOS users; not perfect, but better than none), granular photo sharing permissions, and many more.
