@Xatolos@reddthat. AFAMIG this is to promote Apples own services and products only.
I’ve been on Apple devices since 2001 and have never received or seen an add for non-Apple products on any of my devices. So I’m inclined to believe that my profile is not being sold by Apple to third parties. Which is normal and common to happen to my Facebook or Google profile.
Facebook and Google do not sell your profile, they sell access to you as a customer, same as Apple does. They aren't going to sell the keys to their kingdom. And Apple has ads in quite a few places. Search Ads. Apple News and Stocks also shows ads.
What you have described are data brokers, which is something different and has nothing to do with selling you ads.
