Mark Zuckerberg claims Apple's App Store charges 'monopoly rents,' stifles innovation
Bitter Zucky ... his add revenue is about to get hit by iOS 14 and. his answer is to throw garbage at Apple and cry like a baby!
Stifle competition? with millions of App on ios App store. which has made million and billions for countless developers!!.. its considered stifling and monopolistic????
Stop crying Zucky.. go get some milk and cookies.. -
Apple's $62.9 billion stock buyback program called a bad investment in new report
Too many idiots feeling free to make stupid comments ... thats the journalism of today. Buyback are not an investment in value gain.. They are intended to reduce share count and boost eps.. Share values are directly effected by eps. In the long run.. actually this massive drop in share prices is a great thing for the buyback program. Many more shares can be bought back and retired. -
Apple preparing iOS 14.8 release as iOS 15 launch nears
Turned off automatic updates … will not be updating to 14.8 and 15..
Apple has become super creepy… all in a course of one week!!!… They have turend thier mantra completely upside down, blatetantly saying FU to every person who believed them on their privacy initiatives .. invested in that initiative and paid premiums for that initiative .. ( all down the drain)
From a champion of privacy to the creepiest company who blatently say’s your next version of software will have a built in survaylance spywear.!
Photos now… what later?
Yes icloud can be turned off.. but that breaks the ecosys.. .. ecosys another selling point of Apple..
Turning off icloud .. also means less storage needs on the cloud… which means i dont need to subscribe to icloud storage space anymore… which hurts revinue and is blatently against shareholder interest.
What the F is going on at Apple! -
Spotify supports Epic Games' private antitrust action against Apple
Apple created the ecosystem for their platform ... and all these spoiled developers who made millions/billion from that very same service and platform....are now forgetting how they got there.
Apple provided them and the the consumer a secure ecosystem through which both sides could comfortably and with peace of mind trade.
Providing and managing all that is not free for Apple... on top Apple is not a charity organization.. its a Buisness.
As for monoplistic behavior... how can one be a monopolist when they only hold 13% -16% of the market share in smartphones and mobile devices in units!?
Now if they held 95% market share like windows did.. its a very different story.
The consumer has a choice to go elase where.. actually aprox 85% do !
It is Apple‘s world and their own ecosys of their own creation.... u dont like it.. move on to the other options. There are plenty of options.
There is no Monopoly.

iOS 15 adoption rate appears to be lagging behind past updates
Apple shot themselves in the foot by trying to imbed a a Mass Surveillance code in all of their devices through their operating systems under the guise of CSAM Virtue!
They lost integrity, they lost credibility and consumer faith in their supposed commitment to Privacy and their Mantra of ‘Privacy is Paramount’… A commitment most of Apple customers were willing to pay a premium for.. ( one stupid decision and all of that is out the window)
And to this day they have not officially backed off from implementing it… continuing with the damage rather coming out and openly admitting to the blunder and getting their Full PR force behind damage control! and hopefully damage repair!?
I for one, (and seems many as well) will not update until Apple openly and officially abandons their shameless attempt to install Mass Surveillance code in MY/OUR devices!
