Apple files legal challenge over Europe's demand for third-party app stores
AppleZulu said:aldanno said:Just imagine if Circle K was forced to carry every brand candy, soda and beer. Also imagine they weren't free to mark-up their product prices as they saw fit! No one is asking the Apple Retail Stores to stock every iPhone charger, or competing smart phones? Why is the digital store different? Especially in Europe, they also won't let you sell car parts that haven't been 'certified' to not compromise their safety or environmental standards. Are they planning on setting up an international body to 'certify' apps as not harmful to the operating system or other apps?
I don't get it.Lastly and probably something you ought to consider. This works on MacOS because consumers would not accept these rights to be removed. Imagine how utterly useless your MacBook would feel like if all you were left with was the App Store applications. Does anyoje use the same arguments for MacOs?? No, this is an excellently executed propaganda by Apple to have you think that your phone and tablet is somehow different in this regard!!!! -

EU tells Apple to open everything up to its rivals
wonkothesane said:Dear Thierry, can I have a BMW engine in my Mercedes, please? And I should be able to put any headlights in my car well well, thank you. And while you’re at it, I want to control my Bosch appliance with the Samsung app, buy competitors’ products in my supermarket of choice and run iOS on Android phones. No biggie for you, I suppose. Cheers.

Rival leaker claims new USB-C image the 'real deal'
This would be enough for me to break my 3 year upgrade cadence. Traveling for about 60% of my time and every other device is usb-c with the exception of my iPhone and AirPod Max (hoping they fix that too🙏) and of course Apple’s Watch and MagSafe charger.
Constantly having to have 3 usb-c to lightning cables when I travel. The lightning connector have a much more finite lifetime. I find that it usually wears down after 4-6 months and I have to have a spare, just in case.I’ve had the same iPad usb-c cable since 2018, no issues with it at all and it works in my GoPro, Drone, battery pack…
