  • Intel wants to manufacture Apple Silicon

    Hey Intel, any new adds of yours,  about how bad Apple’s M1 chips are?

  • Apple calls Epic Games 'self-serving' in Australia hearing

    Guys as Sweeney and Zuckerberg, are pretending to protect something nobody asked for. 
    They are attacking Apple, hiding behind the “SMALL BUSINESSES and “DEVELOPERS”, in attempt to cover the problems they have with their own companies. This guys full of complexes, never admitting they have make wrong decisions as CEO’s, are trying now to prove themselves how great they are.
    But Zuckerberg already have changed the tune. Curious when and how Sweeney will do

    Any suggestion that Apple reports back to the Russian government which apps were installed and which were skipped?  That doesn't seem to be part of this story.

    No, no, this is misunderstanding! 

    I am very, very far from the idea that Apple is going to report back to the Russians. 
    My concerns are, that with the  set-up process, the users are forced to make choices.
    The developers of the domestic apps (who are state backed, otherwise they will never appear in the choice list), would be able to know who is using their apps and respectively who don’t, what makes the users vulnerable in countries without democracy.
    How would they know who don't?

    They might not even know who do if Apple's privacy protections do their job.

    Your reasoning is right, but here. Not there.

    Example: You are buying an iPhone there. Through your provider they know immediately that you have an iPhone, but they do not receive any
    data from their domestic apps. 
    So they know, you have chosen on purpose, not to use the domestic apps.  And this is not good for you.  ( there  ;- )   )

    Is that true tho? Do you think Apple is providing installation reports from iOS to the Russian government? That would be a shocking revelation. Color me skeptical.
    No, my post has nothing to do with Apple. Het is misunderstanding.

    Please read above.
