How come Steve Jobs' estate isn't suing for confusion?

Apple, I Disagree with this decision. 

Firing is extreme. 

It is not correct.

The intentional security breach was extreme and unprecedented at Apple, and firing the leaker was VERY appropriate. Compassion with no boundaries could destroy the company. Fortunately the leaker admits wrong doing and is not (yet) playing the victim card. 

> "Angry Birds" once again launched much quicker under iOS 12, taking 40 seconds compared to 41. 

A 1 second improvement on a 41 second scale is not “much quicker”. Overall great article, thanks!

A reasonable person might ask how much it would have really cost Apple to ensure that phones could not film without first obtaining a code number or other authorization.

Huh? The iPhone X being used to film something is not the issue. It being the subject of a film is the controversy here. Codes and authorization built into the pre-release iPhone X to prevent it from filming would not stop the girl from pulling out her personal iPhone and filming the screen of the pre-release iPhone X. 

Finger scanning scanning company declares competing face scanning is not secure enough for business. More than a little conflict there. 

What exactly is a fake iPhone? An android with a iPhone-like body and skin?

The other day I spoke to my nearby iPhone X and asked Siri to set a timer for 3 minutes. When the timer was done I told Siri “Do that again.” Siri responded by saying “hang on let me listen... hmm I don’t recognize that song.”

I then asked my nearby Echo’s Alexa to set a timer for 3 minutes. When it was done I told Alexa “Do that again” and it immediately set another timer for 3 minutes. 

I love Apple but am disappointed the Siri is falling so far behind in the basics. It feels like Siri is a soon to be discontinued product and that Apple has moved onto other things like Augumented Reality. 

Apple’s intentions were good but I can see how some will view it as a sinister upgrade scheme. People love conspiracies. 

I most often take accidental screen shots when I am using one hand to put the phone to sleep or using one hand to raisie the volume. The fix doesn’t seem to address that. 

Samsung proved that you can get away with anything.
