I think that is rather the spin of this website or who ever made this survey.
Apple seems to be rather in the situation looking for distinguishing features of their (admittedly more expensive) phones and clamp down on ad-tracking is the one thing Android/Google will never be able to copy like they did with more or less everything else that made people want to buy Apple phones.
The funny yet bizarre truth is Apple will whitelist themselves, and thus by extension NSA, from getting data on you via OSCP checks or their own domains or data polling (even if it is 10x less than Google, it still is 1x, NOT 0x).
So you end up with Android where you can degoogle it fully and completely with tiny efforts, or you can have Apple with a façade of complete privacy via excellent marketing, even if it may be more than Google Android, as you can never verify it with Apple. All because the user was lazy to not be able to setup their own phone and consider 0 money and 1-2 hours of investment in privacy a waste of time.
