Not my title! I do think we are being listened to. And location tracked. And it's being passed on to advertisers. Is it apple though? Probably not is my take away from this article, but I don't trust plenty of others, and apple still does

Apple is the one who got caught so far

If you think Google, Amazon, Meta, Microsoft, Samsung et al aren’t doing this, I’ve got a bridge to sell you.

I’ll buy-t. What did Apple get caught doing that these other companies haven’t got caught doing?

Edit: Oh, the Siri settlement. The article linked argues against the claim of it being used for advertising, though.
