Cool! Hope I’m alive to see it.

Yes!! Force Apple, Google, Amazon to play nice, and have their own services/features on each other's devices. This will ensure that customers are not tied into an ecosystem and can use devices made by any manufacturer in any eco-system

I believe that your intentions are for them all to play by a set of standardized rules but isn’t that just more government regulation and red tape that Apple would end up getting entangled in? Seems to me that on AppleInsider, my primary focus needs to be on Apple. The rest of them can argue with each other all they want.

“Apple, for its part, collects relatively little user data compared to companies like Google or Facebook, and takes steps to anonymize or secure the information it does gather.”
The most important reason I have sought out Apple computers for the past 40 years has been this ideology. While I am by no means a great programmer, I am a devoted follower and user because of the philosophy that Steve Jobs instilled in Apple, it aligns with my conception of a gainful prosperous life, that insists on giving back and being honest. There, I’ve written it down. And I challenge any serious Apple devotee to make an argument with that. Cheers to your day.

Spectacular engineering needed to create another spectacular game changer. Hope it shows up in my lifetime. You go Apple!

This guy’s outlook  is a complete waste of my time. AppleInsider, why would you even give this slug space in your forums?
