Thing is, there are alternatives but people settle for cheap and convenient. Lots of people hate Apple because of some odd contrarian marketing reason. Apple doesn’t do this. Linux is another option. Both are hugely better for regular people than Windows.
Let’s be fair. Apple doesn’t do this quite so blatantly and egregiously, but they do it. They collect plenty of telemetry, and it’s getting harder to opt-out of/block it with their own chipsets.

Yeah. That’s some real bullshit. As soon as I can get functional Linux on my M1 Mac mini, I plan to.
