“Apple responds with skepticism” - well, admitting that a bug in your software was exploited isn’t a viable response for the PR department. In reality, I doubt any one can definitively prove or disprove whether such an attack occurred. It’s just another reminder how complex and interconnected all the handy systems on our phones are and how important it is for Apple, Google and security researchers to keep up with the cat and mouse game of quashing bugs.

Completely agree with the above comments, but here's the bigger issue - the White House and government in general should not be making policies for or against any specific corporation. They should be making policies for the good of the country and the economy. This story is just another example of how corrupt this administration is.

I know little about the technology but if Starlink is significantly better than Globalstar it would seem to make sense for Apple To go with them. Reasons I can think of not to would be price, if the main use was intended to be simply emergency service so performance and speed wouldn’t be as much of a concern, and an interpersonal feud between Cook and Musk. One would hope the latter wouldn’t be the case but I’m not that naive to assume so.

As long as they keep the charging port on the bottom, I'm good with any possible upgrades. 

for God's sake, why would anyone want such an absolutely f*cked up design? 

It's absolutely amazing that the easiest improvement Apple could make to the Magic Mouse is the one that they are too pig-headed to make.

Maybe Tim can have Trump design the next iPhone Pro.

It'll be orange and Trump will say: It's be the best iPhone ever, Apple will make billions and billions of dollars, no one is ever be able to make a better phone than me, we're gonna have the wealthiest country we've ever had.

He can put it in his trump bible since he doesn’t know how to use either of them.
