Apple's attempts to exclude Xbox exec's testimony a 'distraction,' Microsoft says

What a shi* company after all the respect Apple is giving them on iPhone/iPad. Time for Apple to take office Apps seriously and kill Microsoft.
Microsoft teaming up against Apple playing dirty.
In fact, if you took Google, Microsoft and some of the other top ranked and used apps off of the Apple store, Apple would tank fast. No matter what YOU think, the world runs off of them and needs them and nothing Apple has can replace that as of now.

MS did mess up with the mobile phone market though, but as I pointed out it's hardly had an impact on them.And FYI Xbox isn't closed like you claim, they have integrated the EA store into Game Pass and rumours claim Ubisoft+ is also coming to the service. And that's despite the fact your argument is totally and utterly flawed by the fact you can go and buy a game from a multitude of other places from brick and mortar stores to the supermarkets to Amazon. I don't recall the last time I could get an Apple app from the supermarket..... if Apple lose it won't change anything for Xbox. -
Zoom seemingly granted access to private iPad camera API

Beta test is nonsense. This is available on the official app. You could use that excuse if labeled it as experimental or limited access to the feature. -
Apple files to strike Microsoft testimony over console profit claims
It's a well known fact that consoles are sold at a loss or cost. They make money from the software. The Microsoft executive is speaking the truth, but if they won't provide the documentation to back it up then it's up to the court if they accept a testimony or not. But Apple must accept it will also need to provide documentation for all its witnesses. -
Only 4% of iOS users in US are opting in to ad tracking, report says

Thsnk you Apple for returning some semblance of power to the consumer and allowing us to “vote” on such an important matter.Ridiculous that it’s even legal for companies to spy on us so invasively at all. -
Apple has a 'whitelist' of developers who can access unique App Store features
genovelle said:canukstorm said:earthkid said:It’s good that they have white list in my opinion because then those who miss behave like the epic they can be on the blacklist if they can come back to iOS again. But since they like to break the rule and then Sue asked for it, I don’t think I would let them back. and the white list is to be there for those who follow the role and play by the role. Reward for good behavior is honorated!We treat every developer the same. We have open and transparent rules, it's a rigorous process. Because we care so deeply about privacy and security and quality we do look at every app before it goes on. But those rules apply evenly to everyone. - Tim Cook, Jul 29 2020So much for that.
It’s no different than early access given to developers for new hardware or software features added to an upcoming OS. Giving Access to the wrong people ensures leaks and other problems.
