  • DOJ backs antitrust bill targeting Apple, Google, Amazon

    DOJ has extra time to look into this? Would be nice if they actually spent time on the real criminals.

    It would also be nice if they actually took a poll of users to see what we think instead of simply listening to disgruntled corporations.
    Exactly! DOJ should look first of all how to protect the consumers, and then (if necessary) how to fight the big tech

    I can't imagine a reason, why I would install Google Chrome on my MacBook Pro at all

    Well, it looks good on number in the presentation. But let’s not forget the Ultra is comparing with a 2 year old Xeon. 2 years is a lot in computer technology. Not to mention, arguably AMD’s Epyc is the fastest CPU in the PC world. 

    Let’s hope the future Mac Pro will be even faster with 4/8 sets of CPU. But it might cost $8000 on the entry model.
    Why can’t you and others accept the fact that Apple has produced something amazing here?
    I wanted to ask those guys just the same question. What they are trying to say actually?
    Why they don’t simply shut up for a minute, try to think for a minute (if possible), and admit that Apple made again a giant step forward with the new M1 Ultra chip. 
    And this is still only the beginning…..

  • Sideloading is a malware danger, Apple tells U.S. lawmakers

    qwerty52qwerty52
    Apple should support third party curation, with some kind of revenue split. That way we can get better app stores, or at least better specialized app stores, but with Apple still getting the revenue it wants (and should receive) to ensure the App ecosystem is properly managed. This also isn't perfect, and it certainly has its own technical (and business) hurdles. But, it would solve one of the Apple App Store's biggest problem for both app developers and consumers, which is that it is a disorganized mess. 
    If you don’t like the way AppStore is working and the way it is organize, and you feel that you can do it better, why you don’t create your own OS and your own application store with your own regulations in it?

    Of course side loading is a malware danger. That was never being debated. The solution is simple: A switch that turns on side loading and turns off features like the official Apple App Store and iCloud that would be compromised by a side loaded app. Users who enable side loading would use third party app stores on their device. It's perfect for older iOS devices that otherwise would otherwise collect dust and is also a great way to recycle old devices. I bet less than 10% of iOS users would enable side loading on an old device but if they want to they should be able to. This is why jailbreaking exists. Apple should just make an official way to jailbreak old devices and be done with it.
    It is not very clever!
    So are you suggesting, that Apple should invest in creating special new iOS versions, only to make old Apple devices be able to use third party app stores?…..
    Without collecting any commission?…..
    And why Apple should do this?
    Apple is not a charity organization, remember?
