I'm 500% positive you have no idea why.bobolicious said:I found and turned off the tracking long ago. To me it should be opt-in, so I agree with Mozilla.

Leaked docs show Facebook weaponized user data against competitors, with little regard for...
Why does "our government" have to always be the answer? Can't people who are not stupid...just not use Facebook, and people who are too stupid to know better deal with the consequences?spice-boy said:I'm a big "faceless" tech company, trust me! Our government has got to get between them and our privacy because when billions of dollars are involved morality, respect for individuals and the law are disregarded.

Dark mode, universal 'Undo' gestures touted to arrive in 'iOS 13'
Except no one wants Dark Mode 24/7 the way it was implemented in macOS. I had to use a third party app NightOwl to get what people actually want which is automatic shifting between Light/Dark mode based on time of day.
iOS of course will not be able to be manipulated in any such way.

2019 iPhone will charge AirPods Wireless Charging case, have larger battery
AirPower's failure is a direct result of poor leadership at Apple, something we've been seeing indications of for years.
What happened is very clear: a few years ago Apple was faced with the decision of adopting Qi or doing their own proprietary wireless charging from the ground up. Qi sucks, and the solutions on the market at the time were abysmal, so Apple had to be seriously considering the latter. But someone made the call to adopt Qi, which was the fastest and cheapest way to get wireless charging (of any kind) to the customer immediately....with the promise that they would build a proprietary layer on top of Qi to meet their standards for what wireless charging would be. Well that was a really bad bet, because 2 years on, they have failed and have now been forced to acknowledge that failure.
Now if Apple ever wants to achieve their vision, and the expectation of customers who demand better, they will have to go back to the drawing board and start from scratch with wireless charging...like they should have done 2 years ago.
