No one is as anti-consumer as apple. It's a walled garden without the ability to side-load apps and byzantine restrictions like no 3rd party web rendering (aka, Firefox).
The solution is not buying their products or services, and buying the most open and least bad thing that meets your needs. When consumers prioritize openness, right to repair, and actual privacy the market will eventually follow in that direction. Apple feels they can play the privacy angle, but it's just privacy to keep you in the garden and away from 3rd party ad tech and to completely capture the revenue stream.
