  • iPhone 17 - Eight upgrade-worthy features rumored for fall 2025

    The Apple Watch Ultra has a battery which is 76% larger than the regular Apple Watch. I would like to see an Ultra iPhone with 300% more battery than a regular iPhone. I don't like charging mine every day.

  • DeepSeek's iOS app sends unencrypted data to Chinese servers

    At least it's not sending encrypted data to FBI servers......
    I presume that's a joke, since it is funny. You trust foreign dictators who commit genocide more than the FBI?

  • UK secretly orders Apple to let it spy on iPhone users worldwide

    Apple should introduce a feature whereby a certain PIN or a certain fingerprint will instantly erase the keys that unlock the data drive. In essence, all user data would be instantly lost forever with the use of the wrong finger or PIN. 

    This would render moot any law in any jurisdiction that forces users to unlock their phone with a PIN or a fingerprint. Anyone who tries to compel you to unlock a phone would have no idea if you are using the right fingerprint or the right PIN. Ideally, using the wrong PIN would unlock the phone into a "clean" configuration so that they wouldn't even know you/they just cleared the phone.

    I think I've been asking for this feature for about ten years, but I don't recall a single person agreeing with me.

  • Ex-Apple engineer admits 'expensive mistake' after leak lawsuit is dismissed

    A good reporter would check if his spouse makes more money than he does, or if his parents are rich. This is relevant because he may have taken the risk knowing that he had a fall-back plan. Maybe that's not the case here, but it's worth checking.

  • AltStore brings first porn app to iPhones in the EU, Apple doesn't 'approve'

    Yes, it's so great that the EU is solidly behind the exploitation and objectivization of women.
    The freedom of not being able to install the apps you want? Like when Trump was removed from all platforms, used the Parler app, and Apple banned it. Is that what you want? And now the freedom of not being able to install what you want on the phone you own.

    What is next? The freedom of having a car that won't let you drive to certain shops? A fridge that won't allow beer?
    My appliance = my choice.
    Fridges are all hardware, and once you buy it you own it. You can even sell it.

    Smartphones include software, and once you buy it, you don't own the software. You can't sell the software after you bought it. Software is licensed. You can sell the hardware. You can even jailbreak the hardware, and that's legal. Apple won't sue you. But you can't sell or modify the software.

    I'm tired of people arguing for the last ten years that they own the software.
