Apple Inc., maker of over a billion devices, led by CEO Tim Cook.
In the engine's read, Apple's huge base of devices is a data-collection layer reaching right into ordinary people's pockets.
Its Private Compute Cloud setup (from iOS 18 on) can capture usage data and biometric information, and Apple is named as a 'Glasswing' member — extending the data gateway directly to the consumer.
It matters because it puts the point of data capture in nearly everyone's hand, not in some distant server room.
