They do not live with the same restrictions though: https://www.forbes.com/sites/johnkoetsier/2020/08/07/apple-a...

I think it’s a bit more nuanced. As far as I know Google, Facebook, Amazon, etc. can still use whatever data they have on their logged-in users to target ads.

Apple argues that’s what they do, too. I haven’t delved deep into that, but think that, technically, they’re right.

Now question is whether Apple’s “whatever data they have on their logged-in users” is on equal footing with what the other big players have. Many iOS users are permanently logged into Apple (¿maybe not even when using a browser?). I guess many also are almost permanently logged into Facebook or Google.

Can you use an iPhone without an Apple account?

The only real comparator here is Google, who have similar information available to them on Android.
