I read through 70,000 words of Apple's privacy policy and associated guides so you don't have to.

Apple's advertising business has grown massively in recent years, with ads appearing in the App Store, News and Stocks apps. Part of this is its personalized advertising. Everything you do in the App Store is tracked, every tap of the screen and scroll of a page.

@mattburgess Thanks for your heroic effort! I didn't see it in the article so wondered if you noticed what policy/terms/tracking applies when one uses MacOS (Spotlight) and/or iOS level (Search box) search? Obviously this is multi-facetted but the interesting one is what happens for SIri Knowledge (depending on your OS level)
