So, the market wants to revert back to the “AOL” method of billing, where you need to contact them directly to cancel and jump thru many hoops before it’s done. 

Yeah I can see how customers want that choice. 

This is the number one reason I always go through the App Store when possible. Apple makes it ridiculously easy to cancel a subscription. My biggest fear with all this side loading talk is we’ll as customers will be the biggest losers with all our subscriptions spread all over the place with no easy way to cancel subs. 

Be kinda cool if it could be an external drive. Maybe a new Time Capsule 

My understanding is Russia threaten to arrest and prosecute Apple and Google’s employees who work in Russia if they didn’t remove the apps. Extortion in my book.

Beautiful is that we will be able to see how harmful is for Consumers!

next step: right to repair & etc ! I want to be able to change the battery on my iPhone, the memory on my Mac Mini and etc. !

just how would change out the memory on a M1 Mac? It’s part of the SoC. That’s the point. 

Just a question on this tech. So, the software scans for known images of child porn from a data base from a third party. Which would imply that these images are downloaded off the internet or texted to one’s phone. Well, what about the person whose actually using his/hers iPhone to shoot pics, say in their homes? Those wouldn’t be in the database. Exactly how does that work? Or are those images “safe”? It seems to me that this tech only solves half a problem, that is images of known child porn. Not new ones. Am I correct in understanding this?
