Goldman Sachs lost $1.2 billion in 2022 mostly because of Apple Card
Due to Apple Card benefits such as no fees and a competitive interest rate

Apple considering 2025 debut of touchscreen MacBook Pro
Definitely not needed as it’s a gimmick feature. Had them on work Windows machines and they were an oft forgotten about annoyance. Reaching up to the touch the screen when your hands are on the keyboard is baaad, m’kay?

House of Representatives bans staff use of 'high risk' TikTok
No, the same cannot be said. If Twitter or Facebook give user data to the government in order to conduct surveillance on journalists and activists, it will be major, major news.rob53 said:Same could be said about Twitter and Facebook. Rules for government owned devices already limit what the user can access. Of course these have been constantly violated, especially during the last administration.
TikTok is a spy device for the CCP.

Who is saying that? Where? There are rules for which agencies to spy on whom, and when the rules are broken it’s big news — like when Snowden exposed it. Maybe you heard of this?macxpress said:
But it's perfectly okay for the FBI, CIA, NSA, etc, etc to spy on every one of us everyday isn't it.lkrupp said:
Maybe the NSA, CIA, and the U.S. Military know something you don’t. But then you’re just a Chinese government operative spreading disinformation and propaganda.

It’s been reported on everywhere — ByteDance used TikTok data to spy on Americans and journalists.
