  • Chinese video platforms reportedly axe Apple's 'Hi, Speed' livestream

    Apple users used to be able to smell propaganda but maybe not any more. The China you’re describing isn’t the one my sister has lived in for the last 10 years.
    Maybe you should ask yourself why we’re demonising a country/ideology - just like we did before we started our Islamic holocaust.
    Then your sister is either living in ignorance, or sugarcoating what the Chinese government is doing.

    Where does one start with China?  Hmmm

    The "re-education" Uygur muslim camps?
    Tibet?
    I.P. theft of just about everyone outside China
    Illegal militarizing of South China Sea
    Illegal fishing pretty much worldwide
    Good ole' Hong Kong
    Oh... let's not forget Tiananmen Square... that's a people-favorite... since China oppresses pretty much any of its own citizens that threaten's the government.

    Shall I keep going?

    Only two more out of many:
    Arrogantly occupying East-China Sea against the will of neighbouring countries....
    A Communist dictator, who will dictate the country as long as he lives....

    And this is today, not 10 years ago.....

    Shitty country that makes knockoff Apple products but still jealous of them. What has Apple done to China? Fu** them.

    Absolutely. And everyone who is thinking that the Chinese companies are free to do what they want and they are not independent from their government, is naive. This companies are always following orders from above.

  • Spotify threatening developers over apps that transfer playlists to other services

    Murvel said:
    Hardly upsetting. Apple does this type of thing all the time.
    Af course you don’t know what you are talking about.
    Ever hear Apple complaining against Spotify?
    Spotify is the top of hypocrisy. For the EU is playing an innocent victim in sheep field, who needs a help,
    and in the same time it is really ruthless wolf if it goes over its own users.
    But we know that all companies complaining and fighting against Apple, are doing this in attempt to stop 
    the run-off of their own users.
    Think on Epic, Facebook.....

  • Microsoft will 'absolutely' bring xCloud to iOS and iPadOS, targeting 2021 launch

    Beats said:
    This is a pretty hot garbage excuse and I wish Apple would stop using it.

    There's nothing inherently unsafe or untrusted about the games being streamed on XCloud.  They are literally the exact same games being played on consolea, PC, and Mac from developers like EA, Ubisoft, Bethesda, and other known game developers both large and small.  All apps on the store get reviewed... so review the app.  Pretty sure XCloud is going to come up clean.  The streamed games are downloaded.  They reside on MS servers.  Pretty sure they're clean as well.  The content rating is governed by ESRB.  There is no safety issue with XCloud.  

    It's a revenue issue.  That's totally okay for it to be a revenue issue.  Apple wants to figure out how to get paid for iOS access.  I don't see a problem with that desire.  Trying to couch the issue as a safety issue is simply FUD.  

    "The App Store was created to be a safe and trusted place for customers to discover and download apps, and a great business opportunity for all developers," a spokesperson said in August. "Before they go on our store, all apps are reviewed against the same set of guidelines that are intended to protect customers and provide a fair and level playing field to developers."

    It is a safety issue. Even if every game is safe if Apple allows Microsoft to break the rules then they will have to allow others also who may be malicious.

    Yes, and before we know, we will be back in the time, when AppStore did not existed.

  • Ex-App Store head says Apple Arcade violates Apple's own policies

    AppleInsider said: Since leaving Apple, Shoemaker has been a critic of the company's App Store .

    It seems to me, Shoemaker didn’t leave Apple voluntary, but it was fired. 
    Now we know that it was the right decision.
