this isn't apple weighing ethics against revenue. this is apple being forced to decide how much their pro-privacy marketing is really getting them in the market.

Given that privacy is why my friends and I have iPhones, Apple will lose a lot of users and developers if they go back on privacy in any way.

  • Linux based smartphones will sell like crazy at that point.

    • Android are technically linux based.

      I bought the Ubuntu phone. The phone was nice, but there were bareley any apps, and the maps app only worked online, which was useless outside of my home country. A dissapointment overall.

    • That’s the utopia that I want to live in lol but in reality, I think GrapheneOS will pick up more users.
