The irony is if Apple had not made a big deal of these features, it probably would have been subject to a lot less scrutiny and criticism. As noted, other companies already do take measures against CSAM, and have for a long time. A bit of opaquene…

I've always thought removing the Store tab from the top banner was one of the more questionable moves during the Ahrendts era, and disliked having to scroll to the bottom of the page to find the store link amongst the others when I simply wanted to …

Absolutely agree. This needed to be said. Unfortunately, for many, the topic has become dogmatic, with no thought, or consideration given to the practical implementation or implications that would be brought forth by politicians and regulators who …

Yeah, it should be interesting to see how they'll try to make this pass muster with the anti-trust regulators, especially given the current climate in two out of the three branches of government.

In principle, I am for the right to repair. I do my own repairs, when feasible, and don't like the "disposable junk" nature of a lot of goods sold today. However, as a practical matter, I understand the difference between repairing my car, an appli…

In my experience Windows 10 doesn't run great with its minimum 2GB requirement (yeah,a cheap boss), so it will be interesting to see if the new 4GB requirement will be more of the same. Adding RAM resulted in a palpable improvement. One of the Mac…

Google is an experiential brand? Never mind "inherently experiential?" Uh oh. When one of you VPs doesn't understand the strength of the company's brand, there may be trouble. Google's most popular, non-fleeting products are tools -- search, mail,…
