did you know that your Apple iCloud
photos and messages probably live on a
Google server although Apple does
operate a few of its own data centers
the company reportedly spent 300 million
dollars on Google Cloud Storage in 2021.
the same report estimated that 8 million
terabytes of high cloud data is housed
by Google which is around the same
amount of storage you get with 64
million base model iPhones though it
might seem weird for Google to give such
a huge assist to one of its biggest
competitors 300 million dollars was
nothing to sneeze at and Apple's not
alone Spotify and Home Depot use Google
too however apple is by far the biggest
Google Cloud customer apparently earning
them the nickname Bigfoot internally
think about that next time you see one
of those apple privacy commercials
