Apple has issued a warning to its 1.46 billion iPhone users, targeting those who use Google Chrome. The company has put up billboards around the world promoting its Safari search app as a “truly private” browser. While not explicitly naming Google Chrome, which is the most popular search browser for smartphones, Apple’s message seems clear. The ad highlights the security concerns around Chrome, as Apple has nearly a billion Safari users compared to Chrome’s 3.4 billion users. The billboards have been spotted in cities like San Francisco, London, Paris, Singapore, and Australia, prompting discussions on privacy and data collection practices by Google. Google has faced controversies over the years for collecting user data even in incognito mode, leading to a class-action lawsuit settlement in April that required the deletion of billions of data records. Apple’s move to promote Safari as a more secure option comes amid growing concerns about privacy and data protection in the digital age.
