Same with Windows computers. You make no sense
There are a lot of smart people making sure Apple hardware supports Linux. There is a limited number of variations, the hardware itself has high built quality and Apple pushes support into the Linux community so the hardware can more easily run Linux.
The same cannot be said about any random windows laptop.
As others have noted, if you want a Linux first laptop, there are options.
However this idea that Apple spies on its users has no merit. It’s a claim I have only witnessed being made by the witless.
I’ve been in the internet long enough to know not to expect fools to accept they are fools.
Unlike the morons of the internet, I am always ready to be proven wrong. However, it doesn’t look like that’s about to happen here.
According to the current class action lawsuit, the privacy settings for the app store do nothing. So consent doesn’t matter. Building a digital fingerprint after explicitly saying they don’t might be called spying.
