  • Senator opposes breaking up big tech, says Chinese firms will fill the void

    Yes!! Force Apple, Google, Amazon to play nice, and have their own services/features on each other's devices. This will ensure that customers are not tied into an ecosystem and can use devices made by any manufacturer in any eco-system
    I have to disagree with your thinking here. I’m with Apple because they aren’t Google. I’d like to maintain choice and freedom to choose which platform is best for me. I think that “force” is going in the wrong direction. I love the Apple ecosystem and the quality of life added because of their products. I like the values that they have instilled into their company. Most of all I like the privacy aspect and interoperability of all my toys. 

    America is freedom. You can choose the platform and company that best increases your quality of life. 

    There is definitely room for improvement but forcing companies to look like each doesn’t foster competition and does a disservice to us. 

    I applaud the Senator for his views on not breaking up these companies. I hope it spreads to others.

    Just my humble opinion. No disrespect intended.

  • EU launches antitrust probe on voice assistants like Siri and Alexa

    pujones1pujones1
    Anti-trust investigation for voice assistants? Seriously? There are 4. Any others out there? I’m sorry but this seems ridiculous and another grab at money. Spotify again? Do these guys and gals do anything else other than whine and try to get a free ride? They suck. I tried their product. Didn’t like it.

  • European advertisers critical of iOS 14 warning users about ad tracking

    Here’s a thought. Pay us for our data. Then you can sell it with our express consent. Everyone profits. There. Problem solved. Personally wouldn’t sell my data though.

  • UK anti-competition regulators scrutinize Apple-Google search engine deal

    pujones1pujones1
    "Apple's significant market share"? I thought Android was King in the UK. 

    Even though I don't like it, Google's search engine is king. No one comes close for whatever reason. I use DDG sometimes but they aren't even close to Google IMHO. So the regulators want to take money out of Apple's mouth so others can be default? They can be default already. We just have to choose them. Isn't that the idea? The better experience wins right? We get to choose not the regulators. Old bast..ds.

    Money grab again for the UK? Like they are always after an American company for something and it ALWAYS ENDS IN A FINE $$.

  • Apple TV+ lands 'Emancipation' in record-breaking deal

    pujones1pujones1
    $100 million for one movie? Seriously? How much more content could have been purchased with that amount? These big mega deals aren't going to fill a catalog or back catalog. We need more genre in this thing. Anime, Asian, Stand-up.....different things. This needs to speed up and stop getting these type of deals that cost so much. Get some live stuff too.

    I hope they continue to give this away when I buy my iPhone 12. That will be the only way I stick with it right now.
