    And for those users who do not know or care about how their phones actually work (i.e. the vast majority of users), the software update will lead to some phones randomly shutting down … (more)

  • Apple demands specially-certified chips & factories for HomeKit devices, report says

    pdbreskepdbreske
    Is there any indication Apple won't certify certain factories because those factories' worker policies aren't up to the standards that Apple would like to set for all the world's workers? … (more)

    Isn't this better than having the government dictate what we should do? Isn't this how a free market economy is supposed to work? Why does everyone insist that the government step in and "… (more)

  • Apple refuses to back GOP convention because of Trump politics

    pdbreskepdbreske
    I'm not backing either of the two major parties (and haven't for years), but this probably isn't a smart business move for Apple. Suppose Trump wins. What does Tim Cook think Trump will do … (more)
