Apple CareKit integrates with Tresorit ZeroKit to secure patient data in the cloud
This is great news. With encrypted medical data communication with patients a reality, the last important milestone has been attained. Now Apple, with its work with and employment of medical researchersand cooperation with renowned medical institutions has in place the final pillar. The AW, and the medical gear able to communicate with the iPhone/iPad will now be secure to allow off campus recuperation.
A can think of a number of services Apple can provide insurance, hospitals, clinics, senior home care, etc. A real hardware, software and service growth potential for Apple and major social contribution. 👍 -

Lawsuit blames Apple's 'less safe' FaceTime implementation for fatal traffic accident
Many Laws are provided to protect and regulate the citizenry of a nation.
Thus far, personal responsibility 'law', created in the hopes of protecting dumb, incapacitated, self absorbed or 'libertarian' individuals, and especially the innocents preyed on by their misdeeds or misadventures, is an area of jurisprudence which has had successes and also glaring failures. Many of which have been recounted in the comments above. This lawsuit would constitute an attempt to reap undue profits from the glaring failure end of the scale, and should be dismissed.
In each instance of the above mentioned case, the lawyers, the aggrieved family and the self absorbed teen, the concept of personal, ethical/professional and legal responsibility for this terrible tragedy has been shirked.
The lack of a propensity to live up to personal/professional responsibility or to try to maneuver into a position of advantage in a tragedy such as this, or the pure disregard of others safety is a symptom of a greater disease; a larger, less defined but surely more dangerous reality.
this so called disease would be loosely described as the breakdown of the society, on many functional, psychological and philosophical basis.
When an ever increasing segment of a population cannot govern their own actions or play a reasonable role in their own wellbeing or others, through attempts to weaken attitudes regarding personal responsibility, this leads to the 'personal/institutional anarchy' observed on the roads, sometimes in business and institutions, in families and in us individually and specifically as a functioning society.
The penultimate example of this, resides in the results of the most recent national election. The Founders were very cautious and extremely apprehensive about voters being able to set aside external influences, foreign and domestic, and to be able to vote for a proper and worthy candidate for President. So they included a, 'fail safe', to forestall an electorate to dumb or to self absorbed or one to intellectually empty to select a fit candidate.
so even the Founders in their best effort, sensibilities and conservatism, were unable to legislate a solution to a truly deficient electorate. The era of personal responsibility being passé is upon us.

Chinese manufacturers not likely to follow Apple iPhone manufacturing migration to US
Speaking of foreign policy, tech and tariffs, the Chinese pose another significant issue for Apple, given their unyielding attitude on Taiwan. TSMC and other important Taiwanese located suppliers will be caught in the crosshairs. This upheaval would have a dramatic effect on Apple. The threats are hardening and the timing could be sooner than expected.
this to is disturbing!
