I like Apple products because of the aesthetic and familiarity for sure but another big part of that is they don’t collect my data for ad targeting, ostensibly. Google does that in spades - it’s the raison d’être for Android and Chrome, and Google’s source of income.

But if Apple is going to start doing that one thing they claimed didn’t do, I may just consider switching to green bubbles. Fuck them.

In a future where everything will be "Kirkland" brand products, we won't need no advertisements.

I wonder if that'll apply to CarPlay. Can't wait to see if that causes any accidents...

We've known this for a few weeks, what's new about it? Or are we just gonna get brow beaten about it until we just agree to switch to Android, or just block the people posting about it?

I don't like it either, but if nothing's changing, why keep reminding us? I don't see a call to action or even a Change.org petition here.
