> Assuming Apple itself doesn't bypass Little Snitch, I don't even think Apple is doing the level of telemetry Microsoft does.

Apple doesn’t do all that much telemetry even if all the telemetry settings are enabled. Because you’re not a product to them. Which is probably why they didn’t even play in the AI race.



Apple's ad revenue keeps climbing, and eventually it will be too big to ignore, while their products plateau with little innovation to show. Don't think they are immune to market forces that bend literally everybody else, at the end they have shareholders too.

Seen the battery life figures on yesterday’s iPhones? And ARM revolution was just 5 years ago.

I would hardly call it “little innovation to show”.
