Do you think Apple protecting people's privacy is propganda?

I have all Android stuff I just like the layout more and the Android phones can be put thru hell. But all this talk about Apple protecting peoples privacy, this isn't what sold their phones in the beginning, they sold for changing the telephone. And now all this talk about Privacy, is it any coincidence that Apple is the most popular phone. What if this whole time we've been bugged regardless of what phone?

    Do they really make that claim?  Hilarious...

    I know a guy who had a heated political argument with a friend of his.  Two days later, he started noticing political ads on his social media feeds that related to that very argument..  His iPhone was in his shirt pocket during the argument.

    Another guy I know has a friend who bought a Tesla and asked him for a ride to the dealer to pick it up.  While the car was being prepped my friend used his iPhone to take pictures of the proud new owner.  A few days later he started seeing Tesla ads on his social media feeds and emails.

    My guess is that Apple is just being Apple and selling image to the image conscious.  When they mean "safety" they mean making sure your personal data only goes to those who pay them for it...

    If there is a thought you have that you want to keep private, don’t put it on the internet on any platform. With the skills of today’s hackers there is no such thing as internet privacy. It’s a myth.

    There is no protection. They all know what we eat for breakfast.
