Can't stand Sweeney. He's revolting, but right on this one.

I will get rid of cloud storage.

As usual , with charging devices and cabling, Anker offers a superior product and much better value than Apple.

This is gross margin not net. The net is nothing close to the number being discussed.

Almost everyone here is very technically astute. Not so much with corprate and business finance.

Seems reasonable that porn filters should be automatic by default. Those who wish to view such material can opt-in if they choose I hope. Leave it to the Mormons to come with this.

What is a "reasonable" porn filter versus an unreasonable one? I would like automatic default filters on Fox News, Donald Trump, Trump's children, Kevin McCarthy and Mitch McConnell. I find them incredibly more offensive and damaging than pictures of naked people engaging in sexual activity and certainly they are vastly more damaging to our country and youth's development as mature, emotionally healthy adults than those naked people I mention and what they might be doing on camera or in pictures.

It is not reasonable porn filters should be automatic by default. Why should they be automatic? The means to restrict minors access is there and publicized by Apple. The idea there should be automatic filters applied to non-minors is close to being offensive. Don't like it, don't look.
Automatic is just another extension of the the government and religious conservatives into other's lives. "God" forbid someone should unintentionally see someone's genitalia or naked breasts. I am sure they would be scarred for life.

100% Mom's fault. At first, I was a little sympathetic and started to think maybe Apple should give her a partial break. Then I read what she said. Apple should double the amount of the charges the kid wracked up.

She has got to have two pretty big ones to blame Apple for her complete failure to stay one step ahead of a six-year old. A SIX-YEAR OLD child!

Apple has and provides more tools for parental control than anyone else and they promote the tools and are constantly refining and publicizing them.

The kid is a lot smarter than the mother.

Wilton, CT is a very affluent and well-off town in Fairfield County. It takes significant money to live there and it's a place a lot of very well-off NYC people are flocking to these towns. Popular place if you have a lot of money and want out of NYC.
