Really? The worst privacy suck of a search choice for all of their devices is a "customer-centric" choice?

They couldn't default to the least intrusive? Or rotate randomly amongst the options?

No. They couldn't. Rotating randomly is just about the most frustrating thing you can do to a user. Also forcing your users to use an unfamiliar search engine.

Remember, we're talking about people that Google "Facebook" to go to Facebook.

You seem to imply that Apple users are less bright than the general population.
