Right. I guess that's why Apple is pimping how it owns 400 million credit card numbers. That's all because it's not pimping out its users. Yessirree.
Stop lying to yourself.

Street slang is embarrassing. Apple talks about how many accounts it has on iTunes in order to demonstrate the size and weight of it's ecosystem. It's not passing on those credit card details to third parties. Your reference to this is irrelevant and flimsy. I repeat - working yourself up in too a state of righteous indignation over privacy in iOS because Apple pulls a single app shows a lack of any sense of proportion. If one wants to get concerned about privacy start with companies whose core business model is based on collecting user data. Is that idea some how controversial?
