I wonder if this is a result of internal user prototype feedback.

Or maybe it was simply wrong.

Certain outlets once proclaimed that Apple was killing off the headphone jack.  When it turned out that they were only removing it on platforms that couldn't physically support it, those same outlets claimed that Apple changed direction based on user feedback.  Which is simply bullshit, as Apple was never killing off the headphone jack in the first place and those certain outlets couldn't bring themselves to admit that they made a mistake.

I wonder if any health information collected is subject to HIPAA.

Generally speaking, HIPAA only applies to healthcare providers.

Agree with the above, the crime of Apple seems to be that it is Big

I suspect that Apple's true crime is that they are good - and like the kid who always gets high marks on tests, they get beat up after school.

1) Warren Buffet (a man who would know) says that Apple is one of the best-run companies on the planet.

2) Apple is consistently tops in customer satisfaction, year after year, decade after decade.

So an interesting question for me is 'who do these legislators represent?'  It's not Apple shareholders.  It's not the billions of Apple customers.

Sounds like special interests.  If so, I'm not sure I feel bad that they lost - even if I'm not happy about big-money lobbying.

Seems worth mentioning:

Although it's not obvious, Fusion 13, like Fusion 12, is free for personal use.

Once you download and install, there is a license prompt that will take you to the appropriate web page to sign up for a key.
