Which corporations in your opinion are the most evil for privacy, and the least evil for privacy?
The privacy setting on IOS is mostly somkes and mirrors as most data is still phoned home, somone made a blocklist of services that „phone home” weirdly often (alltough some I understand, others are there for unknow reason to me). (here is what apple claims each of those send/do ), telemetry is way too closely tied with apple walled garden to fully disable it without loosing funcionality. OEM versions of android arent really better but becuase of the nature of android you can install vanilla android or even a full blown linux distro, there are some efforts to port android and normal linux to iphones, but its very much only a proof of concept, not a end-user os. Generally i personally prefer a open solution for something as low-level as an operating system. Im also very dubious over the iMessage security claims as it had security problems in the past.

What do you guys use instead of Google maps?
Yet they enable personalized advertising by default and collect copious amounts of telemetry? Doesn't seem like "miles ahead" to me.

macOS: What is triald and why is it taking so much disk space?
I just put this list in /etc/hosts. Seems to work well enough. I don’t use any apple services on my Mac. This will probably break those.

Apple's retail employees are reportedly using Android phones and encrypted chats to keep unionization plans secret
Apple has personalized advertising and tracking on by default (having tripled their share of targeted mobile advertising since monopolizing it), as well as a wealth of telemetry and has participated in NSA's PRISM like all other large American tech companies, so I'm not really sure what point is being made here.

[Question] Is it possible to make jailbroken devices more private by totally cutting or reducing Apple's telemetry?
If you want a complete list of Apple Servers, check out this link and keep in mind that if you block all of them, services such as updates, App Store, and Apple Pay will probably be blocked by this list..

Routing some containers through VPN
I have been running a home server for a little over a year now mostly for Plex and backups. I set up a Wireguard instance with unbound and pi-hole called Wirehole to remote to my services and keeping things secure on my phone and laptop at times.
