> I trust Apple as much as Google

I trust Apple more when it comes to privacy, because there is hard proof they are more trustworthy. Note that I'm not saying they can be trusted 100%, but they are far, far better at protecting their users' privacy than Google. Of course, that's a given considering Google's entire existence is based on selling your information to advertisers, whereas Apple makes their money when you buy their hardware.

Honestly, there is no practical way to not end up in some company's database somewhere unless you eschew all 20th and 21st century tech, live in a cave, and forage for food. Even then you're bound to end up in a news story on the Internet if you're ever spotted, even if it's just Weekly World News talking about another Bigfoot sighting.
