  • Jony Ive's LoveFrom unveils Terra Carta Seal recognizing corporate sustainability efforts

    You could have given this job to an up-and-coming  graphic artist fresh out of college, and would have done just as good or a better job.

  • Meta's Zuckerberg takes shots at Apple App Store fees, maintains its own

    I know this was planned for a while, the rebranding, but how tone deaf does it seem in light of everything we know about Facebook. Glad I deleted my account, wasn't easy but life is actually much better without it.

  • Apple fires leader of #AppleToo movement

    So, she said she wants the discussions between her and Apple recorded in writing, and Apple didn't say no, or yes, just went off and assumed she didn't want to participate in that discussion (about IP). The next thing, is she was fired and access cut off. That is the point of contention here. Honestly doesn't look good for Apple, if this is true.

  • Apple-backed lobbying groups accused of fighting climate legislation

    Corporations usually put up a veneer of social responsibility that's highly visible, while in the background lobbying for all kinds of things that eclipse the public social responsibility plays. This applied to Apple, and it applies to its privacy marketing theme also.

    Why can't Apple and Google just go to the court to argue their case? Do Apple and Google have no spine at all? I am very disappointed at Apple and Google as a shareholder.
    1. That's not how it works in Russia. Even if they did go to court it's controlled by the current regime and they will 100% lose and possibly face prison time in Russia. 

    2. Sell your stocks. 
    At least they can put up a display of willingness to fight (a little) instead of rolling over.

    That's not how it works in Russia either...  Some people really don't grasp how good we really have it in the West.
    So you are telling me that they cannot put up a token resistance, only to show us they didn't just roll over for Putin? Or maybe put out a PR statement saying look we had to remove this in Russia, but we support Navalny and we think he is being mistreated? At the risk of losing all business in Russia? I have an idea how things might work in Russia because I grew up in a communist country. I'm not the biggest expert on Russia, but this does not sit well with me.
