See Apple always loses me. They flip flop back and forth. They said no to a back door entrance when Trump and the FBI pushed them. Now theyre doing this, yet at the end of the day they claim privacy while banning apps from their store that promote privacy. And unlike android users its not really easy to side load apps. You used to be able to via itunes. Not sure jf you still can.

I don't agree with Apple removing Parler (assuming that's what you're talking about). But they removed it because Parler didn't want to stop people from spreading violence (BS reason imo) but not related to privacy to my understanding

Apple is certaintly not without its own (sometimes massive) faults, but this move is absolutely the right thing to do.
