Apple may be a greedy corporation, however, as they make their money selling you expensive hardware and a premium experience, they are not incentivised to monetise user data.
Google has the opposite incentive given they make money at all from Chrome or Android, other than advertising. Arguably they barely make any money at all, other than advising… so of course they’ll track you.

Ridiculous. Time to switch to Safari or Firefox, folks.
My advice would be the latter. That case you can always use the same browser, no matter what OS you decide to use in the future.
Fair, although I personally use Safari on macOS/iOS and Firefox on Windows/Linux. If you’re interested, it’s fairly easy to sync between them with https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/icloud-bookmarks/.
Interesting. I did not know that.
Why Safari? Apple is just another greedy corporation.
Because Safari is chock fill of strong privacy features, just like Firefox. It’s a very good browser, if you’re using Apple devices, especially with the forthcoming OS updates.
