I‘m a little shocked rn. I am using fluffychat on ios since my legacy iphone is still working and I dont want to throw it out until its done.

But this happened the first time: I wrote „then I might need to take a taxi“ to someone and an installed taxi app immediately popped up via notifications saying „get off 25% today“ or something.

This freaks me out big time since it could mean every word I write on this phone gets checked by something/someone.

Anyone else? (It was literally the second I wrote the sentence)

    Apple is not a privacy company.

    However, the data Apple collects is not immediately shared like Google and facebook do.

    They know it has more value if they can be the gatekeeper of your data, and sell companies access to you by getting them to invest in their ecosystem and marketplace.
