So much for the "Apple is all about privacy whereas Google monetizes you" schtick.

It seems to me that advertising is the real secret cabal that is running the world.

"Secret cabal" as in capitalism and its imperatives sure, pretty out in the open though.

I thought people liked using Apple products because of the premium experience that ecosystem provides.

They did. Someone at the top has been ruining that experience lately.

I switched from Google to Apple back in 2018 and the royal fucking up lately is making me start looking at how to go back.

I’m really disappointed with the direction and lack of quality from Apple these last few years.
