  • Apple considers dropping face mask mandate for Apple Store staff

    For all you anti maskers.  Next time you have a surgical procedure.  Please tell the surgical team to remove their masks as they don’t do anything. 

    I’m willing to bet not one person would do that.  Lol

    some people are incredibly dumb. 
    Surgeons wear masks to protect the patient from bacterias (which are a totally different pathogen than the viruses) and they wear it when they spend lots of hours indoors.
    Please tell me you've just started the school and you don't have the right to vote :)!

    Without masks, there will be no store policy to physically distance. 'If' I go into a store, I will wear a mask and treat those without masks like I do people with bad breath by politely backing away from them. No doubt some will be offended but my health is more important than their feelings.
    Maybe you should consider a Hazmat suit...

    I think people will be much more mindful what they publish once they know they’ve been snooped on. 
    If any of this is done without a legal order from a judge I want to know what law(s) is being broken or what laws allow them to monitor a free society the way this article is mentioning. I agree with your comment and I don’t want to have to file a FOIA to try and get it. This isn’t Nazi Germany, Russia or any other country that’s afraid of their citizens. 
    A legal order or warrant is only required if the company doesn’t want to voluntarily cooperate. If they do want to voluntarily cooperate they can provide law enforcement any information they have on you just as if you were on the street and witnessed an incident involving someone else.
    Apple owns the iCloud servers and can do whatever it wants with that information. You own the content of whatever is on your phone because it is your device but iCloud is not your device.
    That's like saying a landowner can do whatever he wants with the clothes a renter has in his closets...

    Personal data of clients should not be given freely; the providing of data should be based only on a warrant issued by a judge who can attest that the law enforcer has a legal right to ask for that data.

    How can Congress fix something that doesn't need fixing hence can't be fixed?
