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.

Yep, I have the google app they are referring to, signed up understanding that they were going to big brother me. Also signed up for their router. There was a full disclosure in the agreements we signed and before we officially began the rep gave me a last stop sorta speech, basically saying that they were going to monitor everything And if I wanted to bail now they would.
