apple doesnt make billions spying. facebook and amazon do of course too.
Apple made 4 billion in 2023 from selling advertisements on their devices. Sure, it's only ~1% of Google's ad business buts still technically billions
That’s not the same as spying. Apple famously doesn’t hand over user data to ad companies.
They are themselves an ad company though.
