Apple Labels Android as a 'Massive Tracking Device' in Internal Presentation

TL;DR Summary
An internal Apple presentation from 2013, which has surfaced during the ongoing Google antitrust trial, referred to Android as a "massive tracking device." The presentation focused on Apple's push to compete on privacy and compared how its products handle privacy differently from competitors like Google. While all mobile devices engage in tracking, Apple has since doubled down on privacy with features like the system permission for tracking in iOS 14.5, leading to a decline in tracking on iPhones. Android has yet to introduce a similar feature, although the company has reportedly explored the possibility.
