Otherwise stick to the terms of your partnership and be grateful they didn’t kick you out for trying to rob them. 

Gotta love these laws with nice sounding names while carrying destructive payloads. 

If they can do this to apple, they can do it to each and all of us. 

“Hey little Susie, great lemonade stand you built. It’s got good lemonade, it’s painted and looks great. And you have a nice secure cash box. Wow. Great job. But you see Timmy across the street? His lemonade stand isn’t so nice and his lemonade is made with dirty water bevause he doesn’t clean the jar , his stand is just a chair with the jar in the ground bevause he is lazy And no one is buying from him. So you need to scoot over and put another nice chair here in your pretty painted lemonade stand for Timmy and put his cash box next to yours and give him space to put his lemonade on your shelf. That way it’s “fair.” And if anyone has a problem with his lemonade, you deal with it ok? Ok. Oh. By the way, Timmy won’t pay you a single penny for using your stand and taking sale
s from your customers. 

I’d be shocked if our “justice system” allows this. But then again, after seeing so much lately, maybe not so shocked. 

In such a situation, Whoever controls the Ai controls your life in that case. 

I’ll do it the Neanderthal way and let everyone else hand the keys to a government or company. 

2. Apple. 

Everyone else, I’ll go through the App Store and they can deal with apple if they try to pull a fast one. 

It’s been good for many years. No way I’m going back to the Wild West days of the internet. 

Last year, I bought a few Yi Home cameras to monitor a property I own while I was in Taiwan. They worked great. Could send and receive audio along with the video in pretty high quality. It was a good setup to keep pets happy that didn’t get along with the pet-sitter. But I had to use their app in irdee to do it this way. And it was a subscription. I was actually quite happy with the service. Worked great. But then after a couple months, I can home and decided to cancel the subscription for now. Then the nightmare came. There was no cancel button. You have to email them. So I did. Then I got a response thst I had to wait for an account rep to contact me. 24 hours later, I received a response. It was a canned line about “to cancel your service, please contact our account services department… blah blah blah.” So I did so. Again. And the same roundabout thing happened. Nearly a week had gone by. Then I let them know how upset I was that I was getting the runaround and needed them to cancel “now. No more emails. No more reps. Cancel the subscription NOW. IMMEDIATELY. then a new rep contacted me with a little more progress, offering me to pause the subscription or continue st a discount, etc. when I replied to cancel, I received the same email back. The whole ordeal went in for a month while they extracted another months worth of subscription fees. So finally I let them know I was getting my bank involved. And so I did. Within three days, they cancelled my subscription. 

Never again. Apple has done an amazing job of taking the internet and turning a seedy underworld into a respectable place where woman and children can enjoy relative safety and peace. 

And then we get these weirdo politicians and their kickback buddies turning a gleaming city into the ghetto all over again. I’ll stick with the gleaming city thank you very much.
