> lack of openness
Lack of openness means lack of privacy. If we can't install apps on the side that have proper adblock filtering, then all the promises in the world are hollow.

A closed system that prioritizes privacy will result in more users benefiting from greater privacy overall, even if it does give the platform more control than is ideal. And that's the issue with the wallet ads: Apple makes users more secure on average, but it depends on user trust, which it just betrayed.
Those who can take advantage of total control are a minority, and they are not really the people Apple cares about.
Sensible defaults and warnings about changing them is all you need to put any argument of 'bad for privacy' down.
There is no causal relationship between open platforms and being bad for privacy. Look at bluesky vs facebook.
Just because android failed in some ways doesnt mean apples way is better. Its a duopoly. There are open source alternatives focused on privacy...with very low user bases.
