Apple faces 500M euro fine following EU music probe
Xed said:nubus said:dewme said:Are EU consumers taking advantage of the bludgeoning of the "evil gatekeepers" and suddenly basking in the glory of being able to purchase EU made products and services at more affordable prices? That is the goal, improving choice and driving lower prices, isn't it?
US regulation forced the unbundling of IE from Windows and it opened the web + made Mac a platform that could be used on the level as Windows for most people. And the fear of regulation forced Microsoft to make a deal with Apple to producing MS Office for "at least 5 years" + made a huge investment (+3% of Apple). At that time Apple was 90 days from going bankrupt. Microsoft needed Apple to stay alive to keep US authorities at bay. Thanks to US regulation we still have Apple and competition. -
Apple TV+ has a lot of content coming in 2024
Cool but what's the point if I have to wait years to continue a story? When is the next episode of Severance? I'll pass, maybe after it matures a bit more.
I also do not appreciate how Apple gives you a free three month trial of ATV+ when you buy new hardware yet will immediately terminate it if you cancel the subscription before the end of those 3 months. It wasn't like that before, you still had access to the full three months. They're hoping you'd forget and it auto-renews, cheap shot. -

Apple & Google turn off live traffic updates in Israel, Gaza ahead of ground war
Media is so biased when it comes to Israel. Ron Paul asked "Why is criticizing Israel is career suicide?". Israel has been an apartheid state for over 75 years, confirmed by Amnesty International, Israel's own human rights org B'TSelem, Jimmy Carter, Roger Waters, Ron Paul, Prof. Finkelstein, and countless others. Other Palestinian Territories don't have Hamas and its people are still murdered by the thousands then get their lands confiscated. The IDF conveniently labels anyone who do not agree with them as either terrorists or anti semitists (ironically Palestinians are semites too).
It's sad seeing Google and Apple comply by such violent and racist group like the IDF.
