  • How third-party App Stores will look to users in the EU

    LOL...emulators. That doesn't seem like the economic boon the EU was looking for. 
    Which is a model that depends on IP theft for content (games). I've never seen a software emulator that uses licensed games. I know there are plenty of game systems that are based on emulators and they include games they have licensed. Will the EU allow people to download these emulators knowing the users are stealing from the owners of the games? When your stuff is being stolen it makes 30% look good.

    This is a great way to guarantee no one will hire you and the only broadcasting you will do is a podcast from your basement.

    Like it or not, this will hurt the Biden administration more than Apple.

    Why?

    Trump can run ads and have talking points like “Now Joe Biden wants to take away your gas stove, your reliable gas-powered car AND your iPhone!"
    Biden did not need to add this to the list of reasons not to vote for him. This is an affront to anyone with an iPhone. If you wanted to win Votes go after cable and telephone companies, private equity, and credit card companies. Merrick Garland has fumbled with Trump as well. Almost four years and nothing.

    Look, Apple is in the wrong here.  They will be found guilty if this goes to trial. Instead, Apple will slowly open up their ecosystem, just watch… IWatches will soon be available on Android. Third party app stores will be available (in very limited ways) in a couple years before trial.  Consumers will have more options to customize iOS to their liking.  It will be a win for both Apple and consumers. Why? Because I have kept up on a daily basis with Apple News and innovation since 1997 on a daily basis.  The only time we had massive amounts of software innovation is n the iPhone was when you could jailbreak your phone.  After Apple has closed off this with encryption software innovation has almost come to a screeching halt. 
    You live in a reality distortion field. Please list us the innovations resulting from jailbreaking a phone?

    We are the government and we are here to help (as in destroy things that work).
