Now we know why Apple and Google are a duopoly….
You get the illusion of choice but you get the same government spying on you in either case.

It is ultimately ignorant to think one is not spied upon in daily comings and goings, when the entire human economy is based on data and the study of it (especially at scale), whether by government, private enterprise or sole evil individual.
With Apple/Google you get the comfortable padded jail cell with 24/7 guards to protect - and monitor you; the digital equivalent of having a police officer live with you. You can't go outside of the walled garden and you're told this is for good reason.
Without them, you're totally on your own; you better be prepared and know how to defend yourself. No one will care about your security and privacy. But don't for a second think you're not still under the all-seeing eye of panopticon surveillance, and possibly additional scrutiny therein.
