Apple isn't privacy oriented, please quit spreading this misnformation. The only thing you can say about them is that they are marginally better than google but that isn't saying much. Their supposed respect of privacy is just marketing.

Did you read the thread? Google devices are orders of magnitude more private if you install a custom rom like graphene OS or lineage + microg.

Apple is pretty much the same as a vanilla google phone in comparison.

Sure, but then it ceases being a Google device. The discussion is focused around Pixel, as is, vs. Apple/iOS, in which case Apple wins by far in that aspect.

Apple doesn't track anywhere close to the amount of data that Google collects. Equating them is very disingenuous, IMO.
