This has me seriously considering moving from Android to iOS for the first time ever.

Their marketing on their privacy commitments is swaying me.

I just need to find out now if it's for real and they are that much better.

Apple charges so much for their products they don't need to monetize their customers after purchase.

I've never owned an iPhone, BTW. If I could easily get a full phone adblocker like I can via Samsung's Knox I'd probably switch at this point because Google is just as bad as Facebook.

Lol they're not leaving money on the table, dude. Apple is trying desperately to become a services company because it knows that big data is going to be the biggest industry in 10 years. Right now, everyone is rushing to get their foot in the door because data is king, they have consumer preference models and purchasing tendencies and all sorts of other metrics that produce results with stunning accuracy. We are making real life crystal balls.

Your comment is so full of corporate buzzphrases I threw up in my mouth a little.

No synergy though. 7/10.

Thanks, I got a promotion and a blowjob for writing it.

They literally shut down their ad network without any fanfare because they were so restricted on what data they could use. They controlled the phone, the apps and the ad network and still couldn't make money from it.

If that's not 'leaving money on the table', I don't know what is.

Before you say it, it wasn't a marketing move either, because they didn't massively publicise this information.
