    What are the political reasons for the carve-outs (video game consoles, medical devices, HVAC systems, motor vehicles and electric toothbrushes)? I can see for safety critical medical devices but not the others.

  • Apple offers to open NFC on iPhone in EU, likely to stave off antitrust regulation

    Apple has a de-facto monopoly over NFC based payments, forcing other banks out of a business and hardware they can use openly on other phones.

    I'm not surprised Apple potentially sees this as restricting competition because that is what it is.

    It is not only the payment side of things either. Users of public transport systems in places like Barcelona are unable to use the system through the native app because iPhones restrict access to the necessary hardware. That is supposedly being negotiated but the authorities say access (which requires negotiation with Apple) could be over a year away. 
    Then the native app can integrate with the Apple Pay system. If Europe is so worried about technology restriction then maybe they should work on a European PHONE. they can always go the Chinese route of phones that way all the EU governments, as well as the Chinese government will know what your always doing. 

    The banks don’t want to play because they didn’t get the info they want 

    had to go to San Fran to visit people the clipper card for the BART transport integration in to Apple wallet worked fine once I learn how to use it.

    Prolly because it has to much privacy and they don’t like it.

  • Goldman Sachs regrets Apple Card, and is trying to escape the deal

    Have had zero problems with the card. Only card I use and I pay it off monthly. Allow all my cash to roll over into savings and have a little bit squirrel away. 

    All the billing is done electronically so how is hard to send it at the same time. Computers should be doing everything.
