Screenshot from the Simpsons where Otto is talking to Marge and Homer standing next to a window in their house with a caption "Oh wow, windows!... I don't think I can afford this place."

You're confusing me with others, just the once, but hey, you're free to lick apple's boots. Fairly common knowledge that just about everything corporation that can include spyware does. You think Apple doesn't track every purchase you make on their platform and utilize that data in reference to your name, phone number, email, geo-location, bundle it altogether and sell to advertisers?
Yes. Free to think it because it's true. Apple doesn't sell their users out, they get their money up front on the hardware....the thing people like you call the Apple Tax.
Your memory is short. It passes through their servers. It may have much less attack vectors from a technical standpoint. That matters not when they give your data away to governments.
