Most of this is good analysis, but when Daniel talks about "Fake news", don't forget he's a hard core marxist.

"Fake news" has an actual meaning. It refers specifically to invented stories published to troll or make money. You might get upset by media reports that you don't like or assume to be biased, but that's another thing entirely. The rest of your word salad is as completely nuts as the president's 4AM tweets.

"Fake news" is itself a propaganda term created by the Left to suppress dissent. Thanks to the President's unwillingness to play along with that game, it's really blown up in the faces of CNN, BuzzFeed and the many mainstream outlets that have been pushing it.

I suspect this thread will soon be locked, so with regard to Apple creating yet another social network, I just don't see it. They're bad at it. They can't make money at it and it's not in their DNA. 

I normally find your argument very logical but this one really piqued my curiosity as to why you consider 'fake news' as a propaganda terms by the Left to suppress dissent so in other words you are saying fake news are factual news that one can counter check with other websites. Is there a sarcasm tag missing or you really meant whatever you are saying that you are a trump supporter.

The term "fake news" was, in fact, created by the Left. That's indisputable. It is a redefinition and dumbing down of the term "propaganda" and has been repurposed by the Left to quash opposing viewpoints, regardless of the source being attacked.

I didn't know Trump is considered to be from the left!

Ever since the previous election, It's incredibly hard to read the political garbage flowing from the guy's writing. Fake news? "Radicalized hate speech"? Or merely people you disagree with? Get real.

LOL...

I see the right-wingers are getting a bit defensive over the FakeNews and Alternative Facts their belief system is founded on...   20 years of FoxNews will do that to your brain...

Hope this is true with IPads as well.

Apple products having fragile glass screens that made this necessary.  I'm going to assume glass is here to stay.

The policy change was probably motivated the "right to fix" and pushback from repair shops.

It probably was.

That doesn't mean we need to let up on right to fix.  These devices have a life well beyond the two years that you get from AppleCare+.  I gave my kid my old 5s, which was already used when I got it.  It's over 3 years old now, I've put a third party battery in it, and it's still going strong.  It's got a few more years left at least.
