The source code is closed so you cannot check Apple allegations only trust them and I don't trust a company who puts a advertising ID on its phones

Do you trust Google? They do a LOT more than add a highly anonymous advertising ID you can reset at at will.

Marketing departments around the world collectively shat their pants when Apple did that change, it made tons of user tracking instantly completely useless.
