John McAfee dies in Spanish prison following extradition order to US
Beats said:DAalseth said:Beats said:R.I.P.

Sketchy rumor claims Samsung courting former Apple engineers for custom chip project

Apple in talks with Chinese firms for 'Apple Car' batteries
AppleInsider said: “ Reportedly, CATL is concerned with both the cost of facilities in the States, and the tensions between the US and China”
Again Chinese hypocrisy.This can not be the real reason, because eventual tensions between US and China, will always be a problem,
never mind if this manufactory facilities are built in US or in China.
