How is it Anker can make the same device and sell it for half of what Apple charges?

And those subscribers aren’t coming back either - they are finished… I wish Apple would just give me back iTunes the way it was… People are getting sick of the subscription based services. They want to have ownership of the products they buy… if they don’t upgrade, then they don’t have the latest feature, but at least they still have what they have paid for to date… I avoid subscription based services and products and will even settle for a inferior product if that product is a one time cost pricing model. Look at how that greed has killed Adobe… people can’t get away from those products fast enough now… and they are. But thats what Wall Street influenced companies do and have happen to them… deservingly so.

I thought congress wanted the App Store to be a free for all.

They seem to want it both ways. Open App Store to competition but lock it down so people won’t get scammed. I assume a fine will come down with this. It’s all a way to get extra money out of big tech companies. 

Whats wrong with Apple and Google just doing proper due diligence on the apps they do allow on their platforms? Google is the worst - they seem to let any old piece of crapola to be put up on theirs… at least Apple gives appearance to have some quality control… but in this case they dropped the ball big time… a proper review would have likely identified this (or any app) as being the scam crypto (anything) has always been… one quick way would be see if you can actually get a real currency out of it in exchange for a crypto token/coin… 

Rgardless, even the biggest of the biggest are scam operators… namely we are even seeing the ones promoted and propped up by the main stream next greater fool recruiting agencies, such as CNBC and others, come under scrutiny… like coinbase… how many of these scam operators have to collapse before we see people get arrested and go to jail? Oh, thats right… they don’t put the financial crooks in jail - they give them consulting talking head pundit jobs at these financial networks… right?

Maybe Apple haven’t joined in because it’s a dumb idea that isn’t going anywhere. It’s 3D TV all over again. It’s pivot to video. It’s crypto.

I agree 100% - its a joke that the mainstream press and news media will try to recruit the next greater fools for… just as they have done with the proven scam, crypto (anything).

I thought the u.s.a. Had treaties and other diplomatic accords to keep us from having to put up defenses against allies? What are the reporters and press missing in these stories about NSO?
