    Uneducated answer

    Proofs? Their privacy policy, the fact that Google is an advertising company, the fact that the “data sharing” of iOS gets leaked regularly and they’re never sold basically

    They collect data, but they either use it for recommendations if you’ve enabled (or rather not disabled) that, else they use it for insight and telemetry to get anonymous or pseudonymous with limited lifespan usage data

    Obviously, anything non E2EE going to USA servers can be considered compromised and in this context, yea, it’s bad, but it’s not all of it and Google phones a lot more data home

        Depends what you mean by trust

        If you mean trust that they won’t sell, then yes

        If you purely mean security, then Google is better imo

        But my beliefs aren’t just based on my preferences. I hate both.
