I, for one, shall only get apps from the official Apple Store. I’d much rather have the protection of Apple and its security.

Another attempt by lawyers to grab some Apple money and they will be the only winners. I have never lost anything I have bought. However, items I have downloaded which are in Apple Music (not bought from the iTunes Store) have disappeared and it is…

Tim Cook should tell Musk and Trump that he’s quite capable of running a large company and that their interference is not required. Bearing in mind Trump is not good at running businesses and Musk is just a chancer who buys other people’s ideas and…

Apple produces a range of products, both hardware and software. I use these products because they work. They work without having to contrive all sorts of weird workarounds. I also use Apple products because I feel they are secure. I don’t want t…

Thanks for a very good take on AI as it is, at present. The initial view that AI is, in fact, not intelligent is what I have been saying, in these comment pages, since it became the thing of the day. It is just the next level of what has gone befo…

The cost of iCloud seems very reasonable to me, bearing in mind what has been constructed to provide that service.

One of my reasons for buying Apple kit is the security it brings. Not so that I can commit terrorist acts or abuse children but so I know my personal data is safe. If the UK government wants to see what is on my devices, it can ask me. If I refuse…

Skype was a brilliant innovation and Microsoft effectively killed it off. The problem I’ve had with MS software (basically Office with its various apps) is far too complicated for the average user who probably use about 1% of its capabilities. Sadl…

As the headline says, if Spotify is the dominant provider in the EU so it can hardly complain about Apple Music dominance. We all have a choice which service we use so there’s no need for any external pressure. If you want to build your company p…

The UK is not a democracy, sadly. UK governments though voted in by the public do very little for the public. Most elected politicians have no knowledge of the role they are taking on, many have never actually worked. They, therefore, have an idea…

Absolutely not, under any circumstances, generally. There might be circumstances under which a court order could request information but only with exceptionally good and strong reasons.

The donations are plainly to buy favours. With Trump being deeply unpleasant, unpredictable and dishonest, it is unsurprising everyone wants to curry favour, whether they are leaders of countries or leaders of businesses. It’s utterly disgusting b…

foregoneconclusion said: North Korea exists as it does because a decision was made during the Korean War, when the US interfered in another country’s affairs that it wanted to exclude itself from further interference. This seems entirely…

leighr said: The end of so called “fact checkers” is a welcome relief for true free speech. When one person, or group, has the power to decide what is ‘true’ or not, we are all in trouble. See exhibit one: China, or even worse, North Korea. W…

I don’t use Google as my default and I find the Google window which pops up on some websites a bit irritating. I also don’t buy from advertising within search results or any web pages. However, services such as Google Earth which are largely free…

Isn’t it time to grow up? Do we really need childish names for things (Google, as an example) and kids cartoon characters as screen savers?

It would be great if the tech companies could just get the basics to work, before embarking on all sorts of fancy nonsense. During the last week, almost every aspect of my home IT has failed to work at some point. I spend huge sums on having the b…

AI is, of course, not that at all. It is just a very costly, in terms of the finance and the environment, way of bigging up a higher level of data processing. It adds hugely annoying pop-ups, drop downs and utterly pointless interruptions. I am p…

Knowing what a band is going to play, in advance of the concert, seems (a) pointless and (b) counterproductive. When will the list be posted? Will it be before tickets go on sale? Will it mean bands will only play their best known and most popula…

I think it is a real shame that cinema as it used to be has died out. Our local cinema had one huge screen probably at least 100 feet (30 metres) across, in a very large space. We had a 19-inch (0.5 metre) tv. Now we have multiplexes with lots o…
