You mean the Apple that gets targeted by Israel spyware firms constantly? The Apple iPhone used by a Saudi journalist named Adman Khasoggi whose iphone was hacked with Israeli spyware, targeted and murdered? Just one example.

Apple devices aren’t secure either.

This is a silly take unless you believe that Apple facilitated its devices being hacked.

Privacy and security are two different things.

I mean the Apple that refuses to build government backdoors in spite of intense pressure from possibly the most powerful entity in the world, the US military intelligence community.

You're also conflating security with privacy, a security hole is unintentional it's not like they were selling their customer's information. No system is perfectly secure. Apple has done more to address those issues than any other tech company. They’re targeted because they’re popular, maybe your antagonism should be directed towards the country that openly sells such software to murderous authoritarian regimes or the government that condones it from their alleged “greatest ally”

Refuses is not the right word, there is no way to audit Apple's refusal or hold them accountable here.

US Senator Ron Wyden whistleblew how iOS Push Notifications are collected by US intelligence, which is concerning when you consider how much iMessage relies on it:
