Yes I'm sure Apple neeever harvests user info

. My head isn't in the sand. I've known Google stores user data for years, I just plainly don't care. I'm nobody special or important, what do they care about my data? Why do I care if some anonymous company peon knows my search history? I've committed no crimes nor do I intend to, so at best all their data gives them is a way to fine tune the advertisements they throw at me. How tragic.
And its not as if having an iPhone protects you from data mining. Theres plenty of ways to track user data through web browsers and apps. If you think having an iPhone means your internet footprint is smaller than mine, then you sir are the one with your head in the sand.
The way you speak you act as if this is a huge deal or something. "I hope you were honest with your bro" like chill the **** out dude its a phone. Millions of people use Android if it was as big a problem as you say I'm sure someone would have blown the whistle by now.
