This is precisely the type of abuse of personal data that Apple has been protecting us from for many years. Meanwhile Google, Facebook and others have pretended it was not a significant threat at all.

The Level Lock should have an embedded sensor to reveal if the door has been pushed or pried open. Messaging that the door was recently locked or unlocked only tells the owner if the door was legally accessed with a key or app. But there are breache…

LiDAR is lie-detecting radar. Point your iPhone toward a person who is speaking, and if he/she is lying then augmented reality depicts an image with that person’s pants on fire. Engineers have teamed with scientists and sophists to develop a forked-…

Apple connects to PEOPLE in ways that few other large companies have ever done. EMPATHY is the essential, but often missing, quality of the modern manager and corporation.

iPhone 8 has experienced huge success! The 3-year-old iPhone outsold all non-Apple phones except Samsung’s three top-selling models, and as a 2-year-old outsold every other mobile phone in the world. (It was obviously a huge seller in the two prior…

If bad guys use iPhones, it (subconsciously) promotes the cause of police/FBI/NSA eavesdropping on iPhone users. Apple’s policy says that movie villains are not analogous to real-world iPhone owners.

The Google Boys had one profitable idea: search. All of their other ideas generated $172 million in quarterly revenue at a cost of $2+ billion. If Google were unable to track the online activity of ordinary citizens and sell ads using their persona…

What makes the music business so challenging is that a significant share of consumers only want legacy music recorded when they were adolescents or young adults. That music is available from many outlets and in several formats, which prevents any su…

Apple shouldn’t do business in Russia at all if it means deceiving/misleading users of Maps in the rest of the world. Crimea should be clearly labeled as “occupied territory” or something of that nature. Russia’s economy is so small (the size of Ita…

He should turn off Penis ID and use a passcode to open his iPhone.

Over the years, I’ve seen just about all of the video content that interests me from the major TV networks. They’ve been beaming it out over the airwaves for more than 60 years. So I’m less likely to pay NBC or CBS for (re-run) programming than ope…

This year’s plain-Jane iPhone 11 is superior to a 2018 Xs, so the 11-Pro is heads and shoulders above the Xs. If there were not going to be an even bigger iPhone upgrade in 12 months, I would be willing to pay the incremental cost of upgrading from …

The Apple News app should (as an option) read news stories aloud to the subscriber. I know the reader can be invoked through Accessibility services, but it should be integrated into the News app itself, with easier-to-manage controls. I would use t…

Apple’s intent to protect private data is obvious. Going forward, Apple should clarify the issue in writing for the indefinite future, and commit to *swiftly reviewing apps for compliance and approval. The presumption of innocence should apply. Ho…

My Apple Watch has asked me on two occasions whether I’d fallen. I hadn’t, but in both instances my left arm was flailing about in an unorthodox way. On one occasion, I had lost my balance after tripping on an unseen obstacle, and luckily managed …

I agree with the editorial 100%. On Jan. 31 the Washington Post reported on a study which found that when people quit using Facebook for a month, the quality of their lives improved — according to those individuals themselves, not an outside expert.…
