  • Ireland's Sinn Fein party says it will pursue Apple if company owes back taxes

    singularitysingularity
    Once again more people who do not understand what is going on.
    IF and only IF the sweetheart deal Apple which gives Apple a tax lower than the normal corporation tax level had with Ireland is found to be illegal Apple then has to pay back the tax it is then classed  as having avoided back to Ireland (from 2004) as it would otherwise be illegal state aid.

    SF is just posturing for votes before the election as IF the EU commission rules against Ireland and any appeal fails, it would be irrelevant what any political party says they have to comply.

    You are truly living in La la land. There's more chance of Tim marrying Kim Kardashian than that happening. Your constant ramblings about the share price and loathing of Tim as a CEO has finally unhinged your mind. 
    Suggesting a strategy of destroying your own margins by deliberately making an inferior product and then letting others make the hardware and have all that negativity.. 
    Why do you guys pile on Sog? Give it up already. He has some excellent points and all you haters sound like Trolls.
    Because if you read his posts. It's just the tired repetition  of the same thing and he has shown absolutely no sense of dignity and honour.

    Apparently Google will release a patch in March to fix the issue.
    Who can get the patch maybe an issue 

    Are you sure? "Whoever" wrote the article says they won't. 

    EDIT: Well gosh you're right.  The "kernel flaw that Google won't fix" has already been patched, and the fix sent out to partners. Weird huh? So where did the claim Google wouldn't fix it come from?

    Aposted a whole 2 hours  before it was asserted it wouldn't be fixed.

    The issue isn't a specific exploit. It's the fact that it will never be fixed for most Android users, making it much more likely that over the next ?? years it will serve as another open vulnerability to exploit by local apps the user installs.

    The fact that an exploit is so broadly installed and won't be fixed is a huge difference between PC Linux and the supposedly open Android, and the reaction by the public to this is that it's a problem Google hasn't address since first taking a stab at it back years ago. Switching is accelerating. This is a pretty clear trend.
    Where did Google say it wouldn't be fixed? I hadn't read that.

    Regardless of the truth of the title, nothing in the article supports it.
    Except for the research, other journalists, the upranked opinions of Ars readers, the cited Android fan, and statistics. 

    There's nothing controversial here, just the half dozen AI accounts created to bash articles they find offensive to their hopes. 
    Or your title to the article which isn't supported by anything like evidence.
    Previous scares might have helped but a just released story?
