Real question. I would like to know what drives you to hate Apple? (In terms of privacy of course because in terms of price it’s another story).

  1. They have their own closed eco system
  2. They think money is key and throw large amounts at their consumers
  3. All source code is closed
  4. They are based in USA
  5. They love AI

Like what another person said, hate is a strong word. But when it comes to Big Tech, I'm all for the word.

Might have missed adding something to the list. Will add more if I have.

If not USA, where ought they be based? Costa Rica?

For example in a country with actual privacy laws that also get enforced... like most of the EU or several east Asian countries.

Anywhere in Europe so GDPR can be fully used and so Apple will not have the same power over their users as they have today.
