In reality, you would have needed to own these rental properties for decades to have enough cash flow in them to make you enough to live on AND pay for their mortgages, maintenance, insurance, taxes, and property management. This is likely

- Comment on Why do most Americans use an iPhone? 2 months ago:
The ads are in the app store and about apps. Googles ads are all over the web and they’ve embedded trackers in every website that call home and tell google what you’re up to. Most android apps also have Google libraries in them that track you. Chrome monitors your off Google activity. Gmail extracts purchase receipts from online shopping and monitors your spending to serve ads. Meanwhile, Apple forced app developers to ask for permission to track users and pissed off the entire tech industry. The two are not the same from a user privacy perspective.

You’re not even making an argument, just an assertion. Are you by chance a software engineer? If you really understand what Google is doing on a technical level, there is no comparison. No they are not the same. No Apple is not just as bad. Just think about it, Google makes their money selling businesses ads. Apple makes their money selling you a phone. The incentives are very different.

I personally do not trust Google at all. Their entire business model is ads and tracking.

Just use nextdns for ad blocking. You can install your own profile that is basically a pihole at the os level for cell and WiFi traffic. It blocks web ads, but also any trackers embedded in third party apps.
- Comment on Why are there so many graybeards in FOSS? 2 months ago:
Idk. As an engineer that already works 60 hours a week, the last thing I want to do with my remaining free time is spend more time in front of my computer on another project working for free. Not to mention, most engineers sign a lot of bullshit legal paperwork stipulating that their employer owns all the code they write, even in their free time, which makes it hard to get involved.
