Google paying Apple to be the default search engine is not the same as Apple selling $20 billion worth of ads to track you.

Google paying Apple to be the default search engine is not the same as Apple selling $20 billion worth of ads to track you.
But it still isn't Apple doing the tracking or receiving the data about your Google searches. They aren't Apple's ads, they're Google's ads.
How does that matter? Apple is still seeing 20% of its profits from ads and Google is still tracking you through Apple’s browser and Apple is getting paid for it.
Google isn’t just paying Apple $20 billion, it’s based on click throughs on ads in Safari. Apple is very much getting paid based on the ad economy.
