In case anyone doesn’t know, the series of 9s is an intentional number set by your banks fraud protection when your account is suspected of being the victim of fraud (bank of America uses 8s instead of 9s). If your account is ever -$9,999,xxx,xxx (or 8s if you’re BoA), call your bank’s fraud department.
Mint.com has a weird bug where some shitty penny stock I own flips between showing my profit/loss from it as being either +$4,000,000,000 or -$4,000,000,000. So I’m either a billionaire or I’m super fucked on any given day of the week.
I’d pass out on the spot.
Meanwhile, google is robbing you of your identity by stealing everything you say on online so that Bezos can get even more wealthy. But fuck Apple, right?
Also….
Well…I mean Androids do have cheaper choices
Apple for sure doesn’t do any of that.
Prove to me they do.
First of all, if you think any tech company isn’t collecting your data and using it with the intent of increasing profits, you’re delusional.
Second, just Google “apple data privacy” (or use Duck Duck Go if Google is too scary) and look at the hundreds of articles and evidence.
I even did the first search for you for free! https://gizmodo.com/apple-iphone-ipad-privacy-problems-data-gathering-1849855092
“The company’s business doesn’t relay on mining on monetizing data as much as rivals like Google and Meta.”
There ya go.
“As much as” there ya go.
Being shot in the leg isn’t the same as being shot in the face. Not sure you’re aware.
It’s kinda weird how much you are defending Apple. By your own analogy, they’re still shooting you, just not as fatally.
There are cheaper android options. Also androids don’t go obsolete as quickly since custom OS are options. Also ability to sideload apps and use FOSS apps. Degoogled OS are a thing as well. So Fuck Apple still stands. People forget that Apple is one company but Android spans many companies so what applies to one company manufacturing android devices doesent apply to all the companies.
