Different version numbers?

This is not what Steve would have wanted. 

Time to fire everyone at Apple.

I just bought the 2020 M1 MBA. It works great and runs circles around my work-issued Dell Latitude. The only time I've used a USB A anything in the last two years has been to charge my iPhone. I work in a customer-facing IT role, and it has been years since a customer handed anything to me on a flash drive. Even my Dell has a USB-C port that I use to connect to whatever is needed, including a dock that has two display port monitors. USB C is the future, and the longer that we hang onto old tech, the longer it will continue to get made. Getting rid of the USB A port is a change, but Apple getting rid of it pushes the industry forward in a good way. 

Also, a USB A to USB C adaptor on Amazon is 3 for $8. 

tl;dr of the Facebook ad campaign: 

“..When people have the freedom to choose, they choose wrong..” -The Giver

If your ad campaign can be adequately summarized by the villain in a dystopian novel, you should reconsider your life choices Zuck. 

This is one of those times that I miss the Steve Jobs eloquent bluntness. Can you imagine a “Thoughts on Flash” open letter,  but about ad tracking instead? 

What "founding principals" of the tech industry? 

Does this man live in some sort of delusional world where tech was founded on anything besides generating a profit margin from a product that people want to buy? 

The tech industry was founded on the principal of selling products to consumers, not some pie in the sky ideal of "freedom".
