Are you saying that there are literally no privacy features? Privacy is a sliding scale, don’t gatekeep some certain level of privacy as “legitimate” and call everything else below that line fake, that’s disingenuous. Compared to Google, Microsoft, etc, they are more respecting of privacy than other big tech companies. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] thedirtyknapkin@lemmy.world 3 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago) Yes because they're sooooo transparent about how they handle you data. And they've NEVER lied before riiiiight? It's not that they're fake for not being private enough, they're fake because of their long history of dishonesty and deceptive marketing. Or would you like to ask them what "current competing hardware" means on their next press release chart? Apple was a cult of personality run by a snake oil salesman until jobs died. Now it's a shell of that, run by a board of investors. Why do people on communities like this, an ostensibly ant-capitalist community, still feel the need to defend them? It's always so weird to me. permalink fedilink source parent [–] onlinepersona@programming.dev 4 points 9 hours ago They just pretend to be. permalink fedilink source parent
