    Well I think it needs to be  there.  Facebook is using tracking cookies even for users who don't have a Facebook account.  It one is really concerned about privacy, the end-user must be informed that a website is using cookies to track his movements of the web.

    Normally Apple claims to respect the privacy of the user, but here Apple takes an opposite position, which I don't understand.
    I hate tracking too, but the law needs to go. Except for some annoyance for users and a bit more for website operators it accomplishes nothing. After reading the warning, agreeing or disagreeing, the user is just as informed as without the warning. It is stupid and pointless.

  • Apple stock closes first negative year since 2008, but Wall Street upbeat

    The investor community totally botched 2015 for AAPL. Too many loud dummies probably. It'll take a while, but Tim Cook is buying their stock, so investor quality is bound to improve over time.
