And this is the way it has to be! Fuck all this "free" stuff paid by data and ads!

Google: tries to track your behavior so they can sell targeted ads in their freeware

Apple: aggressively tried to lock you into platforms and ecosystem so they can sell you subscriptions, apps, and hardware

Both shitty, but one company’s business model is much more dependent on user data to exist.

You forgot to add that Apple tracks your behavior so they can sell you targeted ads.
